My first impression is that it isn't right at all, regardless of the era signed in (i.e. I realize his handwriting has degraded over the last 15 - 20 years).

Polk was a bad dealer from what I recall, and he was eventually expelled from the UACC RD program.

Robert Polk was suspended from the UACC Registered Dealer program for selling fakes. From my knowledge he has never been allowed back in.

I recall several questionable (and maybe that's a generous term) autographs that seemed to be signed in the same hand years ago, and I wondered how he could be a registered dealer when he seemed somewhat incompetent at best.

If my memory serves me correct, he got in trouble for selling Muhammad Ali signed photos although the vast majority of his stuff was questionable at best. He was originally a lifetime Registered Dealer and was given a one year suspension but never was reinstated. That's been some years ago.

Yes Polk was suspended 1year, he died in 2008. So isn't any chance this to be real? :( or any way to find out
