After 20 plus years of selling every name under the sun, and all forgeries, they finally arrested TONY TREMAYNE from coast to coast this guy had them all from Capone to the Kardashians and now he stands to spend decades in jail. To all the buyers (such as most of Vegas), you will have to find another forger to get your signed al Capone Bowlers from, and signed Stones and Doors guitars, along with any movie poster you can name. According to an article in Imperial Valley News he was arrested at the Mexican border and is now in Federal Custody for around 10 counts of Forgery related crimes, and owes over 1.4 million to the IRS, what a piece of crap because of this guy autographs are undervalued, there is a God.

Tremayne was the supplier of these altered signing photos, according to Jerry Gladstone who was the owner of likely the largest seller of music forgeries in the world from about 2004-2011:

It's rare that anyone's arrested, so this is a time to celebrate. Maybe this will whet their appetite enough to go after others. I have a list
