Authenticity is Everything
Henry Ford ..... Please help, history buffs!
I'm trying to talk a friend off a potentially expensive ledge regarding this Henry Ford cut that they are considering. This looks a bit overcooked to me and I told my friend so. No context for the signature at this point since a "custom card" has been made with it.
Perhaps I'm off .... and PSA got this right?

We have looked at RR (and I've had a bit of an education about his signing habits).
I just can't recommend the OP piece to a friend. I know him and he's like me in the sense that, if it seems not a slam dunk now, it's probably not going to seem any better as time goes on. We do realize that PSA encapsulation and the "custom card" treatment adds a premium, but it's a lot of money for something that looks not quite right to your eyes.
Plus, we don't know if that mounting on the dealership's advertising card it's on is reversible or not.

I don't agree that the "custom card" thing adds value. Not to me. I think it is a swizz. I think this item should be discounted and heavily. Nonsense pastiche. Context lost. God only knows what it is glued down with.

I agree with you, Eric.
The "custom card" gimmick doesn't add a premium in my mind either, but it apparently does to the dealership's perception of what the market will bear. Here's another example of this presentation:
