OK, now that's an image big enough to comment on. Keep the discussion here, please. No need to have two of them on it. I'm deleting the other.

Post a comment on Mike Frost's profile asking him to join in.

It's a bad fake 100% one of the Olson one I can even tell by the small image

That is a complete fraud, Khililah Ali nor I have ever examined nor authenticated this item. We have not yet authenticated any items.

I have never examined or authenticated this glove.

What would his wife who was caught selling forged autographs bring to a "company" (I use that term very lightly) like paas? Is she going to strictly point out the ones she sold that where faked? I can show you guys a sweet video where Mickey Mantle talks about a rookie jersey handed to him to look over to authenticate. He pointed out many things he remembers about the jersey. 

Wasn't till about 4 years ago they realized the jersey was a complete fake made with fibers only available years after Mantles rookie season. My point? People who don't know how to properly authenticate a certain type of item no matter how close to the "source" more than likely shouldn't be trusted to authenticate. You think Mickey Mantles son can tell an operation bullpen signature? I would bet they can not.

Where and how was his wife ever caught selling or forging autographs. How can you just make up something or repeat what some fraud may have said out loud.

he should have teamed up with Shawn Anderson.  My ex-wife wouldn't be able to authenticate my signature even if her alimony depended on it.

I'm way late on reading through this thread, but that was hilarious, Terrier!

Can you post similar ones from the same time period that are widely considered to be genuine?

Steve - go to aliautos.com and look under examples and also forgeries
It's a great resource for Ali autographs. He has a quite a few images there from the time period and also documents pretty well Olson/operation bullpen

Thanks. The comparisons aren't for me, they're for others reading the discussion. It would be great if could post links from that site to examples good and bad.
