I've seen Putin autographs--I assumed are real--going for anywhere from $500 to to $10,000 (Profiles in History, of course). 

I'm not interested in purchasing a Putin autograph, but just curious how readily available his autographs are, how much they are going for, are they forged with any frequency, and if there is much of a market in America.  No doubt, there are collectors who specialize in the infamous, notorious, and those of questionable character. 

If I should have posted this in another forum, I apologize.
