DEREK JETER FORGERIES ARE AT AN ALL TIME HIGH DUE TO 3000 HIT MILESTONE

Jeter fans beware....due to Derek Jeter's 3000 hit milestone Jeter forgeries have now struck an all time high on auctions...the top photo's is a perfect example of a G.A.I Jeter forgery that is out there in extremely high numbers...(that forgery style in particular)...Jeter forgeries have been out there for quite some time and are very obvious...the forgeres will never get Jeters auto perfect in my opinion due to the series of loops in his auto...I have seen this style on 8X10s as well...this particular style forgery you can pick out right from the beginning with the letter "D" and those loops for his first name...also how the autograph is all over the place not to tip off the forger of what is so obviously wrong with this horrific forgery style...consumers beware in purchasing any Jeter autographs nowadays...the high number in forgeries and the uneducated buyers out there goes hand and hand that fuels this problem terribly...now on the bottom is a superb authentic Jeter autograph form steiner sports on a Jeter Jersey...as you can see the autos are not even close...the authentic jeter is perfect and fluid...the top Jeter is just a hideous mess...please take extra precaution in purchasing a Jeter auto...do the research...and be prepared to pay a pretty penny for an authentic auto and not a cheap forgery...

Authentic Jeter Signed Jersey from Steiner Sports...

Authentic Jeter single signed ball...

Here is a recent pick from Steiner Sports...as you can see the "BOW TIE''-"OWL EYES'' formation on the end of the auto which lots of forgers try to mimic but never come close to the rest of the formation...

ADDED 8/16/2012 MUST SEE !!!!!

Cee Gee, Chris:

If there isn't one already, can a comparison of genuine and questionable Derek Jeter autographs be posted? Either here or as another fairly comprehensive discussion or photo album. Thanks

Sure Steve...I will post some good and bad ones to compare to....sounds good...I actually posted authentic ones on the first page but will post more authentic pieces to compare to..

Thanks, Cee Gee. I only saw one genuine one that I recall, but if you could post genuine and forgeries side by side (horizontally or vertically) that would be a big help.

This is a god awful mess and not even close being sold on spot light authentics...there is nothing authentic about that shoe...just compare these examples...its insane

Cee Gee...thank you. Your comparisons are really helping. How sure are you that the Jeter ball with the Babe Ruth ball left of it is good?

The JSA ball on eBay that Terrier pointed out looks like a few of the ones you posted here as forgeries and it was authenticated this August. If that's as typical a forgery as you're demonstrating, they really need to be more careful.
