  • pretty cool.

  • Do Honus Wagner.

  • Honus Wagner.

  • That's really, really cool.

  • Hoodwinked, huh?

  • You got here, Bo Jackson.

  • Game issues, signed baseball bat.

  • Any idea what you want to get out of it to 50 But I really don't know.

  • Let me a call.

  • A friend of mine down Haven't come Check it out.

  • Oh, Jackson is a very distinct be where he has two loops in his signature.

  • He does a small loop on top and the larger one on bottom.

  • He always brings it back and is usually either closer, barely open.

  • You can see on this one right here.

  • It just kind of stops right there.

  • That's something you typically don't see going over to the J.

  • And Jackson usually like to see one round fluid motion.

  • Here we have a couple of sharp turns, which is again a typical of what I see in Bo Jackson signatures.

  • And then right here at the end, letter end is brought up at the tail using a bow.

  • Jack's signature is gonna come straight down and right there.

  • Based on what I see here, I wouldn't make an offer on inviting the opportunity since we weren't able to make a deal.

  • I'm gonna take it home, put on my wall and just enjoy it like I have.

  • And at the end of the day, it was tied to Bo Jackson.

  • So it's kind of a definite Mento from me.

  • I have this J Honus Wagner autograph.

  • Nice Honus Wagner, Honus Wagner.

  • I didn't even know who he waas.

  • Honus Wagner was one of the greatest short stops of all time.

  • But most people today known because of his rare baseball card, back in 1909 the American tobacco company and put baseball cards inside a cigarette.

  • Packs and Wagner didn't approve, so we threatened to sue and they stop.

  • Make him.

  • Only 57 are known to exist today, so it's kind of like the Holy Grail of baseball cards.

  • Any idea of what you're looking to get out of it?

  • Well, I'm thinking close to 2000.

  • Do you mind if I bring somebody down to check out the signature receive It's real and let me know what it's worth?

  • I would be great, you know, I do see the J, which is a good thing.

  • He signed like that, you know, really predominantly we do have J.

  • Honus Wagner on here.

  • First thing I want to look at just checked the whole service for the ink here.

  • That's pretty interesting.

  • What is that?

  • Um, they think is an age well enough on?

  • That's kind of a big thing.

  • Okay, okay, Next thing I want to do what I assembled here today are basically his autograph.

  • Authentic examples.

  • There's no question it's not the real deal.

  • You know, Wagner's autograph Really sad.

  • But then again, I'm pretty happy that I didn't put any money out for it.

  • I'll just take it home, and it'll be a reminder to be careful about all these fake autographs out.

  • There have been Old Outfielder's glove signed by Babe Ruth, and I have a bad signed by Babe Ruth and Christy Matheson.

  • I think this bad should be worth somewhere between 50 and 100 friends.

  • The glove should be worth 10 $20,000.

  • I just want someone who is in this business to look at this paperwork to see what they think who is your guy and what makes him special, because I trust him and I know him.

  • But I don't know you Signed gloves are extremely rare.

  • because the oils in the glove over time, kill the signature.

  • Now, as far as the authentication for the bat here, I gotta tell you, this one mixing very nervous.

  • The gentleman listed on this authentication was implicated in this enormous FBI sting operation in the late 19 nineties.

  • It was called Operation Bullpen and was all around getting fraudulent signatures on memorabilia.

  • Absolutely.

  • And therefore, auction houses won't recognize his authentication as legitimate.

  • I have serious doubts about its validity.

  • I think they're missing the boat on these items.

  • This young guy not even sure he heard a paper.

  • I got a movie poster signed by this cat here.

  • Steve McQueen.

  • That's really, really cool.

  • How much you looking to get out of it?

  • I've heard numbers that range from four grand, a 35 grand.

  • So Okay.

  • Do you mind if I had someone come in and take a look at this signatures?

  • He does, right?

  • And s.

  • It's almost like a figure eight.

  • The shape that capital T is huge.

  • And that's the way you Norman writes it.

  • But I see that the T bar is missing.

  • Most ones I've seen before finish up with the tea but doesn't do it that way.

  • Every time shape the ends off.

  • I would say this poster's worth probably $1000 without the signatures, but with the signatures is worth zero.

  • Oh, my God, that's such a drag.

  • I always thought it was a good signature.

  • So it's a disappointment.

  • I've got a Maryland Monroe signed picture and again written poem.

  • Wow.

  • So have you ever had this checked out?

  • I have four experts looked at it about 10 years ago.

  • So what was it appraised at?

  • It was appraised at $48,000.

  • All right, well, that's good to know.

  • Tell you what, Mind if I have a buddy of mine?

  • Come take a look at it.

  • Not something that's striking about this photo.

  • The secretaries to sign.

  • A lot of her correspondents used to like to use a red pen.

  • And I'm gonna pull something up here to show you this is a signature.

  • It's pretty widely known throughout the industry.

  • When we see these photos, we instantly know their secretarial.

  • And that's what we're looking at here.

  • That's disappointing.

  • Yeah.

  • Next, I'd like to analyze the poem and I brought a sample of her handwriting here today.

  • When I start to compare both of these together, you go over here to the poem.

  • It's two different worlds.

  • Yeah, they look absolutely nothing alike.

  • Yeah, this was unfortunately, pending someone else's hand and not Marilyn Monroe's.

  • Well, I wish you were a real man.

  • I mean, we both make a lot of money, but absolutely as it sits, there's really nothing I could do with it.

  • What are these?

  • These are a pair of gloves that my great aunt left may have a bunch of old movie star signatures on him.

  • We have Clark Gable right here, who is probably the most notable of the bunch.

  • Any idea what you might be looking to get out of?

  • I was thinking roughly $1000.

  • Let me have a buddy of mine come down and take a look at it.

  • What I can't get beyond is when I see the G on here and I see this G I see a whole different signature.

  • I'm looking at a G that's connected to the A Goes to the B l e pro doing, uh, possibly one day I'll do something cool on frame him and put him up.

pretty cool.
