Litho Coa
Litho Coa
I started collecting autographs for about 35 years, and do not even know. I was fresh out of school Art and life in New Jersey. During a trip to New York I went into the Phyllis Lucas Gallery and saw a Salvador Dalí signed. Later, some hundreds of dollars, I went with my first autograph. Do not worry about authenticity, because Dali had a contract with that publisher, and often seen in the store. Later, I even received a letter from the artist in the context of lithography was purchased. But so began a lifetime collection of signed artwork. I tried to buy from reputable dealers and galleries. So I celebrated many artists and their signature draping my walls.
In the last year or two, I turned my attention to music and collectibles sports such as LPs signed by the Beatles and Elton John. He added sports personalities as Mickey Mantle and astronauts, as the trio of Apollo 11. The problem I discovered that the most famous figure, the more likely that the autograph is fake. Babe Ruth, Neil Armstrong, Elvis Presley, Marilyn Monroe, Paul McCartney and can cost thousands each. So there is a huge market for imitators are you trying to play them. Most of the general population do not know the difference anyway.
So for those of you who might consider purchasing an autographed picture or an album or baseball, I have some simple suggestions. First, the COA or certificate of authenticity "which is issued by the provider to ensure that the signature is real, is probably futile. Even prominent authenticators such as PSA, James Spence, and Frank Caiazzo, a self-proclaimed "experts" on the Beatles, can make mistakes. I do not want to trust. I do my own trial. How? For search and is not too difficult. Thank you God for the Internet. You can find many examples of authentic signatures reputable dealers and galleries and auction houses. Find sites that are listed by associations such as the UACC, Pada, IACC, or other groups that dealers and autograph authenticators partly responsible. Not a guarantee by any means, but it's better than totally alien to obtain a signature of the COA and say that it's real.
Now suppose you are looking for a Ted Williams or the signature of John Wayne. Collect as many of those who may be documented as real places as historyforsale.com RRAuction.com or not afraid to attract hundreds of people. Then take JPEG images out of the computer screen and save on your computer. Care to compare with the sample. It looks like what the others? Study of the slope, curve and other elements. Zoom nearby. Now, it is exactly this high-priced professionals will do if they were paid to evaluate the room. Become an expert in the people for autographs. Once you are comfortable with the results, trust your instincts. After all, his money is at stake
Of course there are specialist forgers can fool even the best experts and there is little you can do for him. Let be clear about one thing. Nobody can guarantee no autograph, unless you saw it signed in person. Otherwise, this is only his opinion. So why is their something better than yours? Ensure that the training they have forensic, but she has a pair of eyes, as they do. You can always pay for mind again but remember you can be wrong. This is more an art than a science. Even the ink and paper check is the fundamental guarantee. Take the Shroud of Turin, for example. With all our equipment and modern techniques of carbon dating, so-called experts can not agree even if it is real or a hoax.
Therefore, attention in respect of an autograph of $ 1000. Take your time, not convinced that the best deal in town, and relax. Always there will another. Here is another warning on prices. A photo of Neil Armstrong signed worth $ 1,000 or more. If someone is selling on eBay for $ 250, is a forgery. Period. Why would someone with an actual photo of Armstrong dumped on the market for one quarter of its value? Think about it. None of the trading firms are legitimate.
I leave with a remarkable example of an obvious fraud. I saw a picture of a document signed by Marilyn Monroe after her marriage Joe DiMaggio. So this photo has been autographed Marilyn DiMaggio. It would be a real find, because she is Norma Jeane DiMaggio on their marriage license. You see, her name was Norma Jeane Mortenson. But there's a fool born every minute and someone picked an auction site for $ 850. What a flight! But for whom?
