I have some information on Roger Till if you would like to get in touch with me I would be glad to share info. Bob Lemke who was the editor an owner of Sports collectors Digest posted at one time he worked with the postal authorities to catch him dealing in phoney autographs. He has had numerous complaints on the internet about him selling bogus autographs and has made thousands of dollars doing it. You can contact police department in is hometown of Lewistown,Il and talk to Chief John Werland and file a complaint, he knows of Roger Till. Roger also has a brother Vic Till that does antique shows and flea markets all over the United States selling his mainly self-authenticated items. The best thing to do is keep spreading the word about this jackass

I know this crook and just saw him yesterday - I cant believe he is still on the loose and selling fake autographs - scum like this belongs behind bars for a long long time --- he is also an arrogant jerk to alot of people -- beware of antique malls he has booths with fake autographs in them also

He isn't dead. He was at a convention this past weekend and he claimed to someone that he has a private signing this weekend with Carrie Fisher at Star Wars Celebration.

FRAUD ALERT, STAY AWAY - I attended the National Sports Collectors Convention in Chicago ’13 and again in Cleveland ’14 where I met Roger Till. Roger is the owner and proprietor of Vintage Sports located at 124 North Adams Lewistown, Illinois 61542. I purchased nine high-end baseballs from Roger including: Cleveland 2014 - Burleigh Grimes ($350), Red Barber ($200), Curt Flood ($100), Margaret Thatcher ($100), George HW Bush ($200), George Steinbrenner ($100), Chicago 2013: Ted Lyons ($200), Edd Roush ($40), Earl Averill ($50) =  = $1,340 Total. All BASEBALLS were deemed forgeries. Knowing and explaining these forgery issues, Roger is not willing to refund my $$$. This is an expensive lesson, however my goal is not to have others fall into this trap with Roger or Vintage Sports. Do yourself a favor and stay away from this company.

I purchased a Musial ball ball around 2001 from Roger.  By chance, was he ever considered a credible dealer of authentic autographs?  I've compared the signature to known authentic Musial signatures and don't notice anything obvious.  I realize I could send it to JSA or PSA for a fee but was curious if anyone has legitimate autographs from Roger?
