Authenticity is Everything
Ronald Reagan- R R Auction Vintage Hollywood- Saul Goodman Collection
Calling all Ronald Reagan Autograph Experts!!!!!!
R.R Auction has a Ronald Reagan Autographed SP in its Vintage Hollywood Collection.
The inscription and signature on that photo, needs a bit of examination by members of our autograph community who collect Reagan.
I would be interested in hearing thoughts on its provenance and authenticity........

Bravo Bob, Bravo ~ the Peanut Gallery... but it was important to point this out and have a civil conversation as we have had and not deginerate into the abyss that others, typically not here on this site, seem to have.

and Mr. Bill you keep chiming in on these blogs as regardless of your interest in Spock your opinion, whether some agree or not, is always appreciated my cannoli cuisine cousin.

What's your commission?
Where's the REST of the results? Oh...keep forgetting - R&R doesn't publish their results. But then again, everything in their sales sells. Always. Amazingly. Amazingly high.
Was the Motion Picture Relief Fund grouping reserved? Bet you $1,000.

Some of the prices for vintage entertainment really surprise me. You'd really think the pool of interested buyers has been greatly dimished for some of the vintage figures. Elizabeth Taylor? Really? Does anyone under 70 collect her material?

RR certainly does publish their results. They're available as a downloadable PDF after every auction (currently not there as our web guy hasn't posted the link yet)...and everything is also viewable under the past auction results.
The Motion Picture Relief Fund item sold: http://www.rrauction.com/past_auction_item.cfm?ID=3232303
Can I now collect the $1000?

Nolo contendre. Your last few auctions do indeed have their results posted. You have about a 95% sell-through rate. Very commendable, and I am jealous indeed. The entire industry is running at about 60%, at best. You have very understanding and generous consignors.
I swear before Allah/Jesus/Buddha I will hand deliver your thousand bucks, in a cherry-red Lamborghini registered in your name, and one for Booby L. too, if you can prove to me that every one of those kabillion "sold" lots were actually sold, and not "bought-in" - you know...passed, sold to the reserve, sold to the book, not really traded hands.
We stopped that misleading practice years ago. Hope you did too.
In my opinion, for an auctioneer to say that something sold for a certain amount when really it just was passed...or God forbid, to collaborate with a consignor and get them to agree for you to publicize that something sold for a huge figure, when really it just passed...just ain't right. It's kinda like leading people to believe they can buy a Lincoln signed document for a "minimum bid" of $500...oops.
But what do I know? I sell Nazis and fascists and Mengele diaries. Nothing that the people at R&R would want to soil their hands with.
No sour grapes. Glad you did so well with the Reagan.
Best of all? No need to pay consignors! They say the world's ending tomorrow! Catch Bobby's lounge act and have a bottle of Dom on me!

And you know what, Deeb? Keep your "Peanut Gallery" BS to yourself. That appellation refers to uneducated, amateurish big mouths - you know who.
It's a good thing this isn't a live chat site because with all the shilling you do, we'd never hear you - you'd be choking on something all the time! And I don't mean canolli.

The Peanut Gallery was the audience of children on "The Howdy Doody Show" which I watched every day at 5:30 PM after I finished my homework.

Sorry, Herman. I meant children. On TV. In 1930.

Right u are Herman as Mr. Bill should stick to WW2 stuff as he obviously doesn't know Buffalo Bob & Howdie Doodie which ran in B&W from '47 - 55 and in Color from 55 ~ 60,,, from captain kangaroo. And for Mr. Bill's edification it's analagous to Clarabelle but at least he didn't speak which is something Pogo and all his friends wherever they are should learn.

Clarabelle spoke in the last scene of the final episode. It's been over 50 years, but it is a memory I will never forget. The camera zoomed in on his face and Clarabelle, looking right into the camera, sadly said, "Goodbye, kids..."
