Some third party authentication companies will glance at your autographed memorbillia and instantly tell you it's not genuine, but not before charging you a huge fee to do so.
Make Sure You Do Not Fall Victim to Third Party Authentication Companies.
Thanks Bill K. for alerting me of this crap.
I just checked the PSA website and it was very difficult to find where their autograph experts are listed. There may be a good reason for this.
Bill came across a Houdini signature slabbed by PSA that is as funny as not getting a refund based on something that was authenticated by a numbskull.
Here's the slabbed signature authenticated by (who knows who) and you'll never findout.
It may appear to some that Houdini was a greater magician than most believe. Can it be believed that Houdini was able to sign this page about 20 years after his death. One of the autograph "experts" at PSA believes so! PSA's website states the following are their experts.
Bill Corcoran, Kevin Keating, John Reznikoff and Tom Poon. (Who would like to take the credit)?
The not so funny part of this is this page was removed from an autograph album that was manufactured in 1945. According to the "experts" Houdini, the magician was able to sign this page 20 years after his death. So much for authenticators thoroughly examining an autograph. Another example of a collector wasting thier money on an authentication and adding the insult of having it slabbed.
