"In a very nice way, Steve said no. In a very nice way, Steve and others have explained why and given you great advice on how to achieve your desired goal. So instead of acting like an mindless child, here’s some more advice, nicely:

"Steve: I just went to the other site (autograph planet) that I did not know about---all i can say is =WOW. How does anyone who collects autographs make an informed choice as to which side to believe.............I get your point that you…"

"Bernard - its really not about ARA. the photos are there to highlight the practice of altering photos to deceive people.
Steve and others have explained to you multiple times. Enough, already! Jeez."

What makes you think that anything is going to change, Bernard?"

If i'm lucky enough in the future to be able to obtain a Bowie, Stones, Who or Floyd signed piece, you shall certainly be my first port of call.
Thanks again!

Thanks again Mark - I already added those 1987 exemplars to my file. I also just left some comments re that little "'87" scrap. We are of the same mind and saw the same things.

Hi Mark,
Thanks! I was wondering who that Bowie photographer was - Gorman. Great! Much appreciated and glad you like my example.

Hi Mark,
Thanks for those exemplars. I just sent a friend request as well. Do you know who took this photograph? Duffy or Weber or? I can not find this information anywhere. Thanks!
