I did not see Maris on the ball anywhere.  I see  Ed Ford and Yogi Berra..Thanks for any help.…

GAI Sticker removal

As I mentioned a few days ago, I had some autographed in person Mariano Rivera 8x10's stickered and certed by GAI a number of years ago.  At the time, it seemed like the right thing to do for any future owner of the photos.  Then GAI imploded and items with their sticker are like death as we all know.  So, I asked a few days ago if anyone had an idea how to remove those doggone stickers.  Someone reccomended I get some Goo Gone and try to work that under the edge.  Well, that really doesn't…

Drew Max, Forensic Document Examiner, AAU, Babe Ruth Signed Stock Transfer Certificate George Herman Ruth

Here's another beauty I discovered on Ebay.

It's a George H. Ruth signed Stock Transfer Certificate.  It's "authenticated" by Drew Max, who calls himself a Forensic Document Examiner (FDE).  He has appeared numerous times on the Pawn Stars reality show. 

Maybe Mr. Max can explain to me why he "authenticated" the below piece?  It's been over a decade since Operation Bullpen and according to the 2007 SCD interview with Drew Max, Mr. Max…

American Royal Arts issue

Hi All,

I just joined your group and was wondering if anyone has information I could obtain in regards to lawsuits against American Royal Arts. I reside in Florida and purchased three pieces (signed Beatles items) in 2007. Are all pieces sold in that year forged? I paid $2,000 each and after reading about ARA & Morales, I'm now sick to my stomach. Any info would be appreciated.

I was taught how to convert rejections into sales. Here's a good example of a triumph that could have gone awry.

Harding Park Golf Course in San Francisco, named after the twenty-ninth president of the United States, hosted the American Express World Golf…
