Here's a piece I found on the Coach's Corner Auction site headed by Scott Malack & Lee Trythall.
It's a 8X10 piece that includes autographs of the original eleven (11) members of the "500 Homerun Club." The piece is authenticated by Drew Max (AAU). Mr. Max calls himself a Forensic Document Examiner.
All eleven (11) autographs are horrific forgeries. …

Below are photographs of all four Walter Johnson signed postcards. All four were authenticated by Drew Max, who calls himself a Forensic Document Examiner (FDE). I also found it interesting that all…

As many of us know, Ebay has done a decent job removing forgeries from their auction site over the past twelve months, but during that time the forgers and sellers of forgeries have found other outlets to sell their forgeries of Mickey Mantle, Joe DiMaggio, Ted Williams, Whitey Ford, etc.
Over the past year or so, these forgeries have made their way into local auctions and these local auctions are springing up all over the country.
Numerous sellers of forgeries sometimes use an…

It was over two years ago when I started seeing some very odd-looking Derek Jeter autographs on Ebay. I had never seen that particular style Derek Jeter autograph before. At the time, that style of Derek Jeter autograph was only being listed by one Ebay seller, and the common denominator was that all of them were authenticated by Global Authentics (whose lead authenticator is Steve Sipe) and the now defunct GAI.
My first thought was "Did Derek change his…

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…

On Pawn Stars episode 322 (Chumdog Millionaire), Drew Max, Forensic Document Examiner, was once again called upon by the Pawn Stars to examine a high-end signature and this time it was a Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) signed "Letter To Clergy."

Now some facts about FDR's "Letter To Clergy" dated September 23, 1935.
These were form letters mailed to approximately 121,700…

Today we are going to revisit the Sports Collectors Digest (SCD) May 2005 interview with Christopher L. Morales.
Back in May/June 2005 SCD published a two-part interview with Christopher L. Morales. The articles were titled "Newcomer Morales Touts Formal Training" and "Morales Employing Strong Forensic Background."
I will analyze excerpts from the interview without taking anything out of context.
SCD: How long do you spend per…

On September 9, 2011 the Pawn Stars reality show aired a segment in which they were offered a Bram Stoker signed "Dracula" book.
Corey (the same guy that purchased that ridiculously-funny Lou Gehrig signed jersey) was excited about purchasing the "Dracula" book signed by the author himself, Bram Stoker.
So Corey calls in "his buddy" Drew Max, Forensic Document Examiner, to examine the Bram Stoker signature. Mr. Max pulls out his Hubble-sized magnifying glass and begins to…

I have been in contact with Judge Lovert Bassett in reference to his lawsuit against Autograph Central (Bryan Slaven). Mr. Bassett purchased eight signed photographs from Autograph Central (Bryan Slaven). The eight signed photographs contained a total of ten (10) signatures of Bela Lugosi, Boris Karloff, Lon Chaney and Elsa Lanchester.
All ten signatures were authenticated by Christopher Morales, Forensic…

This month Scott Malack and Lee Trythall of Coach's Corner Auctions listed eleven (11) Beatles signed items. Five (5) are "authenticated" by Ted Taylor…
