Yes. If you are talking about the business owned by Rich Altman in Hollywood, Florida, it is a very legit company. I believe Mr Altman has been in the autographs industry for many years and sells authentic items. I have purchased from him before, an authentic Bill Russell signed jersey. And to my knowledge, Altman has a very good reputation.

Hollywood Collectibles is 100% legit. Not only do they sell authentic autographs and have contracts with many sport's stars, they also set up card/autograph shows that PSA and JSA attend for on site authentication.

I know each year I go to Rich Altman's Hollywood Collectibles show in Wilmington MA. It's pretty awesome. As I said, PSA and JSA are there. They also have many booths with athletes signing autographs and also dealers in autographs/sports cards.

I agree, but in the past I've had to inform him of some bad Mantle sigs (Operation Bullpen Mantle sigs) that he was selling.

There were/are two Hollywood Collectibles. One is Rich Altman's, in Florida, which is great for modern sports celebrities, as he regularly holds private signings, has card/collectible shows and even contracts directly with some for their game equipment. The other is/was based out of California. That one was shutdown by the FBI for selling/creating forgeries.
