Authenticity is Everything
Harrison Ford Questionable Autographs
Some of you know me, and from what I understand, someone caught selling yet another bad Ford autograph has once again, decided to spout off at the mouth. Claims that I am a dealer and I only tell unsuspecting autograph buyers that their item is fake so that I can sell my own Harrison Fords. Again I am hearing claims that the likely supplier of the forgeries is the true expert on Harrison Ford autographs.
Side note the seller sent me a friend request message yesterday with the single question about if I knew a particular collector. In my world this says plenty, and likely tells me where the piece originated.
When I tell people that I track the sale of Harrison Ford autographs, I am not kidding around, I watch sales here, I watch sales on rebelscum and on ebay and other online auction sites.
Who signed them? Who is the forger? I am not going to play games and point fingers, nor will I even guess if the supplier is the forger, all I can do is put together where they came from.
I will give the people that have had these in their possession, that courtesy. They can come clean about where they got them as the "in-person" and "private signing" stories fall apart.
This is the same courtesy I tried to provide to Marc Moser, the last guy caught in a huge Ford Forgery mess. He decided to drag my name thru the mud for a few months as well, but by doing that he just shot himself in the foot. People will wake up sooner or later, and the truth does come out.
I present these images to you, again supplying the signatures and letting the people on this forum and others as judge, you decide the truth. You will also be the deciding factor if these autograph professionals keep their reputations or if they have earned brand new ones.
Every item below has been tracked to the most recent seller, and through his own admission the source of the autographs, I will also include items sold elsewhere by the supplier who admitted on these very pages to supplying some of these.
The pattern is pretty clear to me.
As for the recent claims about me being a dealer, out to only hurt other peoples supposedly reputable business.
Please keep in mind, that anyone that has purchased anything at all from me in the past 5 years has approached me. When they do I usually point them in other directions and offer to authenticate (for free) any item they ask about, from any other source.

It is not hard to tell the difference between a hand signed autograph and one that is printed, but it can be difficult to tell the difference while only seeing some of the small images and scans provided for inspection online.

Well I'm glad I posted and asked Pete. I will always ask you before I buy as I really thought they were good. Thank you as always Pete. I'll keep looking

Like they say. If PSA and most of all Beckett AKA Steve Grad says they are real......Well, they are real.

Until JSA starts using their Modern Hollywood Authenticator (listed on their website as an expert,) they are stuck in shameful rut of constantly stickering Ford forgeries.
This piece is just more proof of my statement above.
Absolute garbage, which matches perfectly to every other JSA certed Ford coming from this seller, all verified by JSA in FL.

Thanks Pete! So who is their Modern Hollywood Authenticator? Do you know them? Are they any good?

Their website lists a Modern Hollywood guy, who I know for a fact can do the job, and has all the right friends, when and if, he ever has a question.
He is a longtime friend in this hobby and he knows he can always reach me if needed.
JSA just feels that they can do it without input from people who know the autographs......really builds confidence in their brand eh?

Well, that JSA just sold for $200, which is surprising given that it's supposed to be 'certified'! Haha Perhaps there are more out there who doubt JSA's credibility as well, considering it should have gone for a lot more had it been real in the first place? I for one would have bought it a year ago before having discovered AML and Petes's awesome authentication abilities! ;)
