New Gleason Forgery Added to PSA Facts Page! Not Even a Gleason Style!

Ugh, so very disappointing. It is bad enough there are so many secretarials and forgeries - now this awful eBay forgery??? Two out of the now four PSA Facts exemplars are not by Gleason :( I see I have this pink example saved already as a forgery from May 2018. What are these people doing? I have been monitoring this forger for years as you will see after the item "in question" (obvious forgery) below. This forger has been doing this for a few years - always a cut with an added photo etc. I think PSA removed a genuine - I can't recall but they had more than four a while back - mostly Spear's signature.

Here are more...

I note the pink page was purchased on eBay in May 2018 - I saved the scan. I have written PSA in an attempt to correct this. This is just awful forgery - not even a secretarial (they have one of those as well - a FDC signed by Sydell Spear (Sammy's sister) in 1973. Only the first 2 on that Facts page are genuine.

As this pink page does not resemble any Gleason style or even his secretarials this is most disturbing.

I’ve seen where they’ve removed an item from AutographFacts, but not from the certification database. That said, it’s Jimi Hendrix, so the perceived value is much higher. While it’s great that it’s no longer being presented as exceptional example, the item is still for sale backed by an LOA that they presumably would no longer issue.
