Hi Steve
I wrote an article 10 years ago on the pitfalls of collecting autographs and I think the information is still relevent today .....
http://www.moviemem.com/pages/autographs.php

There are a number of people who offer to provide authentication for autographs. In my opinion, if they did not obtain the autograph in person, then they should not state categorically that it is authentic irrespective of how much experience and expertise they may have. The reality is that the forgers are also experts.
Regards
John

Subject: [MOPO] Autograph verification?


I know this list is for movie poster collectors and dealers but I thought maybe somebody could offer some info regarding getting autographs authenticated. I live in Michigan and I have some sports and entertainment related autographs that I have accumulated over the years that I would like to try and get authenticated. One of my friends suggested using Professional Sports Authenticator http://www.psacard.com/ which I guess is one of the largest companies out there. They are located in california which would require me to mail my items to them to be checked out. Does anybody have any suggestions on the best companies to use for autograph authentication? If any companies are located in the Midwest of course that would be a bonus. Thanks for any help and feel free to email me off the list since if this is too off topic.

Thanks
