Oh my goodness. I'm glad to know you only paid $20 a piece for these.

Allen, we're not here to burst your bubble, but if you want to believe they're authentic, then please enjoy them.

Chris, look at the title of the discussion. He is not interested in collecting these, he is looking to flip them. I wish him the best of luck.

Allen,

I hate to say it but what you posted doesn't look at all like James Dean's writing and signature to me, either. Here's a link to TheCead.com's Dean examples:

Everyone has their own feelings about it but I like it when people post autographs they're considering selling for value opinions. We can tell them what we think of the authenticity, we can give them ideas of value and how to sell it...and there may be members here who are interested in buying it. Collector to collector transactions often are better deals for both parties.

Mr. Goldstein. I was NOT trying to disrespect you in any matter. In fact, I thought my opinions were mildly stated. I am sorry if this didn't work out the way you had hoped.

Allen,

If I were in the same situation as you and not experienced in autographs, I'd be shocked and have a hard time believing the opinions I was getting in this discussion, too.

To show you that members don't always call things fake, a gentleman posted a George Harrison he said George signed for him 20 years ago. Everyone who commented on authenticity thought it was genuine: https://live.autographmagazine.com/forum/topics/beatles-autograph-g...
