For the past couple of weeks I have been openly wondering about whom Bruce was
referring when he stated in one of his email messages: "It seems that some of
those who unknowingly sold some of these as middlemen are taking the odd
position that they have no liability in this, and that they want the people
they unknowingly cheated to join them in lawsuits against those they obtained
the fakes from, and that they won't be refunding those they unknowingly
cheated."
Naturally, I personally would not want to deal with anyone who was not
accepting any responsibility in this sort of a situation.
At last I have finally found the dealer (or at least one of them) that Bruce
was hinting at:
It is none other than Debi Jacobson from L'Imagerie Gallery in California.
What is even worse is that Mrs. Jacobson is a LAMP approved dealer and
supposedly represents the "very best our hobby has to offer."
Apparently Mrs. Jacobson has known for a couple of months now that a lobby card
she sold to a prominent collector has been determined by third-party
authentication to be fake, and she has not made even an offer of one penny of
restitution to the purchaser.
This is another shameful black eye, and a horrible position for one of the
supposed premier galleries in the hobby to take, but I guess it's ok to cheat
people when you are LAMP-approved.
