Harrison Ford Questionable Autographs

Some of you know me, and from what I understand, someone caught selling yet another bad Ford autograph has once again, decided to spout off at the mouth. Claims that I am a dealer and I only tell unsuspecting autograph buyers that their item is fake so that I can sell my own Harrison Fords. Again I am hearing claims that the likely supplier of the forgeries is the true expert on Harrison Ford autographs.

Side note the seller sent me a friend request message yesterday with the single question about if I knew a particular collector. In my world this says plenty, and likely tells me where the piece originated.

When I tell people that I track the sale of Harrison Ford autographs, I am not kidding around, I watch sales here, I watch sales on rebelscum and on ebay and other online auction sites.

Who signed them? Who is the forger? I am not going to play games and point fingers, nor will I even guess if the supplier is the forger, all I can do is put together where they came from.

I will give the people that have had these in their possession, that courtesy. They can come clean about where they got them as the "in-person" and "private signing" stories fall apart.

This is the same courtesy I tried to provide to Marc Moser, the last guy caught in a huge Ford Forgery mess. He decided to drag my name thru the mud for a few months as well, but by doing that he just shot himself in the foot. People will wake up sooner or later, and the truth does come out.

I present these images to you, again supplying the signatures and letting the people on this forum and others as judge, you decide the truth. You will also be the deciding factor if these autograph professionals keep their reputations or if they have earned brand new ones.

Every item below has been tracked to the most recent seller, and through his own admission the source of the autographs, I will also include items sold elsewhere by the supplier who admitted on these very pages to supplying some of these.

The pattern is pretty clear to me.

As for the recent claims about me being a dealer, out to only hurt other peoples supposedly reputable business.

Please keep in mind, that anyone that has purchased anything at all from me in the past 5 years has approached me. When they do I usually point them in other directions and offer to authenticate (for free) any item they ask about, from any other source.

We weren't being dismissive, yet I think a lot of us have just been patiently waiting for the glaring forgeries to show up.

I have issues with the Ford pieces they have pushed thru ebay, but others seem to like them. To each their own.

Sooner or later, I expect the other shoe to drop, and all this stuff will be treated as tainted just by having their sticker on it.

Just for clarification, I meant "dismissive" as in they weren't treating CA with nearly as much caution as you would expect given their connection to the clearly dirty Gridiron.

I think every time I pointed out that they seemed to be the same company, someone would always say,'Everything I've seen from CA seems legit." I just shook my head. It's their money I guess.

There's not much you can do without evidence. CA has legit signings and goes to legit conventions with talent and sells legit autographs. It's difficult to say they are also selling forgeries until the evidence starts piling up.

People don't like presspasscollectibles on ebay either, and accuse them of having PSA in their pocket to cert forgeries. Yet Iconic Auctions shares the same mailing address, phone number and contact info as presspass does and people seem to love Iconic and buy from them all the time.

This signature really doesn't look like the one with Han in the Falcon...of course both sold by CA. I believe this one to be legit.

I think every individual, every company, every third party authenticator is subject to close scrutiny. The biggest flaw in the autograph collecting community is it will forever be opinion based and there will always be differences in opinion. As a collector all one can do is be satisfied with what you purchase. Just remember, if or when it comes time to sell be prepared for anything. Don't get so hung up on being perfect, enjoy the ride.
