The “Preferred Autograph Dealers” is a group of International Professional Autograph Dealers.

The list of members is quite impressive.  Known as “PADAH” it is a division of the Certificate of Authentication Refence Library. The library contains a massive collection of peddlers of autographs who sell spurious autographs and issue a worthless COA’s.

 

It is highly recommended to only support members of “PADAH.”

 

Members of “PADAH” do not have to issue a refund based on the incompetent guesses of  high profile companies who claim they can authenticate autographs.

 

Should collectors choose to deal with those outside this list, which is updated regularly, “PADAH” will not be able to help you should you have dealt with a rogue seller of autographs.

 

Professional dealers who may not be listed as members of “PADAH” please email: skoschal@aol.com

 

Membership in "PADAH" is free.

The following list, very carefully put together, is of those autograph dealers and auction houses that pass muster in the COA Reference Library.  The list consists of those who have clean records with regard to their associations in the industry, lack of ethics complaints, not associated with issuing “useless COA’s” and have had a sterling reputation over several years or more.  These are autograph professionals who research their items and will honor their guarantee of authenticity. Membership in "PADAH" is free.

 

All members are requested to illustrate the Club Logo on their web sites.
