Account for autograph forgeries.

As a collector of autographs, rock memorabilia, I feel that I need to allow for a percentage of forgeries that I may have purchased over my time of collecting. Well I hope to keep the percentage small, but I think it's almost impossible to have a 100 percent success rate ,not being an expert that is. Even these days people are disagreeing with tpa.

Well that seems to be the reality for me , how about you and your collection?

Let's put it this way...I'm certainly not an expert...but I am also not a GFA troll.

Some of my 90s collection, i doubt id have a hope of anyone authenticating some of them. Sometimes someone will point out thats a forgery in my collection and ill say yes your right, other times items i believe are authentic fail quick opinions and i have to be careful of what i take as gospel.

What do you believe isn't real in your collection Paul?

You never know in the future what TPAs opinions will still be taken seriously. New TPAs could pop up. Strange thing about opinion based collecting, someone's reputation is very important.
