I'm certainly not an expert on these, but it looks perfectly authentic to me.

Hi AG

Any way to post a bigger jpg.

I know his auto well, but I need to magnify the image.

This jpg is too small for this, and when I magnify it, it distorts the image

thanks

AG

Forget about my last request.

I came across the item on the Dealers website.

You are indeed correct when you say an authentic Jackie Gleason is a rare find these days.

Even rarer @ $63.00

Stay away from it, not authentic in my humble opinion.

Thanks Bob...I was hoping that it was not a "too good to be true" for once.

AG...Bob's not being truthful. His opinion is never humble.

Lol......

You may be right there Steve, but I try to follow the rules...

Just make it IMO instead of IMHO and we're all set. ;)

But you don't have a reason to be humble. I don't know of a vintage Hollywood collector who can authenticate it better than you.

this looks nothing like the Gleason I have (non-secretarial version). I do not think this one is authentic

You are right on again.

going back and forth on this one....  it's unfortunate the Gleason threads have been rendered useless as there was abound of information and examples.  it's the pose and salutation that keeps me on the fence...  The PSA one has similarities.

Theb "e" in Gleason tells the whole story for me.

that's the 3rd oddity given his w/o question no doubt about it one;

I'm wondering if it's a variation on a secretarial or not?  Since he was so obnoxious in real life I just have a hard time believing he would sign "best wishes" on anything.
