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.

I only glance at the Ford threads, but those 3 look odd - those are not genuine, right?

They don't match any known style of Harrison Ford signatures from past sit down signings, in person signings or any other form of signing. Not a single serious collector or Harrison Ford expert believes them to be authentic, and they have failed PSA and JSA on multiple occasions and Steve Grad himself said they are garbage.
But JPC334233 says they are good, so I guess you have your answer.

I will be careful how I word this but I don't go through them now since question marks over the authenticity of their products was brought into question.
I am not saying their merchandise is bogus but whenever there is doubt, I will steer clear. It's a shame as they do seem a reputable company from what you see of them and I think some of their stock could be real, but the rest, there is the question of if it is real, not that it is not.
Therefore, until this issue is resolved and it can be fully determined if they are fully legit, I will stick with OPX.

Thanks - thought so. They stick out plainly and I am not even paying attention.
I add my voice to Steve's, Pete's, yours etc.

And PSA abs JSA are also known for passing fakes as well.....you know why? It's just a human beings OPINION. Lol

You mean just like your opinions, right?

So? You have an opinion too, as noted. Why should that surprise re PSA & JSA etc? I would not say "known for passing fakes", but mistakes happen. I just posted a PSA "Bowie" that I do not care for, and I just recently saw what appeared to be a Telly Savalas slabbed as a Jackie Gleason. Everyone can make mistakes. But that has nothing to do with the valid observation that those 3 Ford's just posted a while ago don't look right in the context of a larger sampling of accepted authentic exemplars from the very little I have looked at.

At the end of the day WE WILL NEVER KNOW……We will just give OUR OPINIONS unless Harrison Ford is sitting right next to us.

JPC - hate to be blunt here but how much do you really know about Ford's autograph? Because the individual you're arguing against has most likely owned, seen, and studied more of his signatures than anyone else period. It's very safe to say that Pete is an expert on Harrison Ford.
Either you have a stake in Celebrity Authentics or are just plain ignorant since you have provided zero evidence to why these questionable signatures are authentic - And I'm not ruling out either. -
