Piece of the Past, from what i have read on this site, has quite the reputation in the autograph community, and its not good. I suggest searching their name on this site, and on google. Their is alot of info about them out their, and most of it is not flattering. From what i have heard and seen, they sale fairly decent forgeries with occasional good items mixed in. They arent the typical garbage forgery, and at first, alot of them look good. But as you look at them more, you begin to see questionable points. I am not the best on the eagles, so i cant really comment on them. However, the Zepp guitar looks bad to me. The Roger Plant and Jimmy Page both look off to me. Jones i really dont know well enough to say. But i feel confident its bad. The Stephen STills also looks off, as does the Neil Young. And the more i look at Joe Walsh the more i think its bad too, even though i dont know him that well.

I think they all are probably bad, and my personal opinion is to stay away from POP.

Wow, that Eagles one in particularly is nice, neat and orderly. And Felder even signed it last year!

Hell no.  I barely know any of these signatures and can still smell 101 things wrong with them.

I also want to point out the marker choice in all of these items. You see the same alternating black and blue sharpies. Half signed in black, half in blue on each guitar. This is a huge red flag. It is obvious in my opinion that the same person signed all of these and just alternated between 2 pens. The odds of getting these guys to sign while alternating markers is pretty much non existent.

Rick ,

I am sorry but not one of these autographs posted are likely authentic. There are issues with all 3 guitars.

Can you please post the 3 COA's for my files and do you know the price on each signed guitar.

Mike,

  All three are listed for sale on Phoenix, Craigslist. The Eagles guitar is also listed on NYC, Craigslist. There are 3 pictures of each with COA's. They also have all three been authentticated by Global Authentics and the ads have the Global verification numbers as well. Looks like Drew Max and Chris Morales have been underbid by a new authenticator who is willing to sticker anything. I punched in the cert numbers and all three validated on the GA site. I just didnt have the energy to let them know that the 3rd member of Led Zeppelin was not Jean Paul Jones. Thats who their website verification says signed the pickguard.

  I dont recall the prices. Between $4,500--$8,000.

Here you go Kevin. These were on Craigslist like I told you along with a ZZ Top and Pantera and others. None of these are authentic but great job fooling suckers.

Now we all know that this is someone else's fault or someone must have forged the COA's or aliens are saying they are Kevin or some other stupid excuse for these forgeries

These forgeries are all over the place. No chance Kevin is unaware of these fakes or else he really doesn't know as much about autographs as he beats his chest about. Sellers like this know the further they cloud the situation with conspiracy theories that they might sway a few suckers. He actually loses more customers than it saves. But trying to save a few is why he's in here.

I cant even imagine the excuse as to why these guitars were certed as authentic. Are these from the old GAI or the newer Global Authentics (GA). I couldnt tell from the cert. It wouldnt surprise me at all if these were from the old GAI as that would be par on course. But if these are certed from GA, then i cant imagine the excuse for certing these guitars. Anyone even slightly familiar with Page and Plant would see these as immediate fakes. Their are red flags all over the place. They arent junkyard forgeries, but they are still forgeries none the less. Their really is no excuse for certing these items, and they certainly cant be blamed on some coworker who once worked for the company but has since been let go.
