I'm going to put in a bid of $10 on the Thomas Edison. Maybe I'll get lucky. Free shipping to boot!

Thanks for commenting Chris. I thought that is what you would say. Take a look at the T's in Thomas Edison and Ty Cobb. The bottom potion almost looks like a J in each case. To me the formation and slant look very very similar and i would guess penned by the same individual.

It also is very interesting how the Ty Cobb changes pen pressure/and or pen during the signature. The change in ink is quite apparent for an old signature. And then by comparing that ink quality and pressure to the Thomas Edison below it, it again looks like the same pen and author were used.

This is rediculous, i looked at the sellers other items and the ones i looked at all looked bad. Hopefully Chris Williams and the other guys who really know baseball will comment and hopefully we can get these removed from ebay if they are indeed forgeries, and they do appear that way. Although i cant speak to any of the baseball graphs, some of his actor autographs like Cage and Jolie looked bad to me.

The Babe Ruth items each are up to about 150 dollars. AFter reading that authenticity statement, what are these people thinking??

Here is a Joe D from him as well.

this is a joke. anyone who knows Dimaggio autographs would know what the tell tale sign is on this one.

this is a bunch of crap. But it will attract people looking for bargains. they will convince themselves they got a good deal. really pathetic.

Also check out the O's in both Ford Frick and Cy Young. While not identical, they share a common formation and similar characteristics. I imagine all these were signed by the same guy. Most people probably knew that from the start but im a little slow. Just my opinion here and could be wrong, but i think he knows exactly what he is selling.

Not to mention on every graph that has an O in it, the formation is exactly the same.

Gotta love the seller's (Ebay seller ruckusssss) disclaimer.

If Ebay seller ruckusssss reads this, they should note that contained in every listing reads "Seller Assumes All Responsiblity For This Listing."
