Regardless, we were watching an episode tonight, and it was all about real or fake...yes, you know what body part I'm talking about. That's not comfortable subject matter when sitting next to your mother-in-law. Anyhow, it inspired my post, because I recently picked up a signed card on Listia I don't know if it's real or fake.
The auto in question is Ron Guidry. I got it for a reasonable amount of credits, and felt it was worth the gamble. I don't have an autograph of Gator, and I've never gotten him to sign for me TTM. When I saw this, I figured I'd put in a capped bid, and if it went over, well, I would lose. It didn't.
I certainly think the signature looks legit compared to some of this others I've seen. Even if not, the card didn't cost me anything. I'm sure I'll never know, but I'm choosing to believe that I now have an autograph of one of the best Yankee lefties ever.
The "G" looks funny. We can compare tomorrow. I'm going to the Hofstra show, just to get his auto (again). When I come home, I'll take a look.
ReplyDeletePS: Saw it on Listia as well, just couldn't do it.
I have a few eBay-bought autos that were cheap enough for me to roll the dice on. Why make the effort to forge a Tim Scott auto to make a quick 3 bucks?
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, how that show became so popular is beyond me. Way to go America.
I'm gonna vote for "legit" here. Just compared it to my Guidry auto and it looks the same, including the "G".
ReplyDeleteI have my own Listia autograph story coming up.
ReplyDelete2 1/2 Men is example A if someone tells me I don't give the public enough credit.
I think people still like Charlie Sheen ever since Wall Street (I just watched two episodes of the 80s on Natgeo, interesting stuff) so thats on the mind.
