George Bush (#41) signed items?

Is it just me, or is this guy selling a ridiculous amount of President Bush autographed items on ebay? Everything from leather jackets to baseball jerseys?

Unless he has an inside connection, I simply can't imagine the former president signing such a large batch of items. A few from this seller even claim he donated the honorarium to charity. I can’t imagine the president took the time to sign all of these items?

He has done private signings with him that are documented on his website.

Good find Chris. I don't know why he wouldn't place that information in every listing instead of hiding it on his "Me" page.

Also while the site is probably legit, he really doesn't do a great job actually proving anything, such as pictures of the signings etc. (at least not that I can find).

He comes off amateurish and I would have been very suspicious of his listings too without the added info. Still can't say I'm 100% just based on the site.

I agree Tom some pics of him singing the individual items would go a long way. But I do remember over the years him doing these signings as far back as the 90s and there being some proof shots. I guess a psa quick opinion could help when purchasing these high dollar items. I have yet to pull the trigger but have been looking to get a bat ball and and a photo or to for quite sometime.

This guy is legit. The problem is that Bush's signature has deteriorated significantly. Not sure I'd want to pay for an item with a tiny, scratchy signature.

I've communicated with him. He seems legit and the signatures look authentic, although I agree with Mr. Zipper that the quality of his signature has really gone down with age. Also, his prices are on the high side. I've tried to work a deal with by buying several different items at once and he won't budge on pricing.
