Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Hank Aaron hunch

Grabbed this ball at an estate sale recently for an okay deal. Took a gamble. Waiting on the next card show to take to Beckett, but wanted to open this up for possible chiding. Do you think this is a legit Hank Aaron autograph? The estate sale rep said it was signed for the family at a store opening event. Thanks in advance.

Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Found a messi 2011/12 shirt

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I recently stumbled upon this 2011/12 Barcelona home jersey (with tags attached) through a local friend of a friend who's clearing out some old stuff. He says he bought it over a decade ago and just kept it in a closet ever since.
Here’s the catch: it doesn't come with any COA (certificate of authenticity).
looking at the signature and the overall condition of the kit, a small part of me is really holding onto hope that this could actually be legit. The 2011/12 season is absolute magic for any Messi fan, so if there's even a tiny chance this autograph is real, I’d love to buy it and frame it for my wall.
My main fear right now is that the seller is also listing it online, and I don't want to overthink it, pass on it, and then realize later I let a real piece of history slip through my fingers to someone else. But at the same time, I don't want to throw away a few hundred bucks on a fake autograph signed with a Sharpie.
Could any trained eyes here take a look at the ink flow, the handwriting style ("Leo" script), and the jersey details? Thanks

Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Found this Bart Starr signed football at Goodwill for $10. Did I just get insanely lucky?

Picked this up at Goodwill today for $9.99 and couldn't leave it behind.

From comparing it to authenticated Bart Starr signatures online, the autograph looks pretty convincing to me. The football is inscribed:

"To Paul, Best Wishes, Bart Starr."

I'm obviously not an autograph expert, so I'd love to hear what you all think. Does the signature look authentic? If so, what do you think something like this might realistically be worth in its current condition?

I've included several close-up photos of the signature and the football. Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Michael Jordan autograph legit check — found on vintage Champion Wizards jersey, no COA

Thumbnail
gallery
0 Upvotes

Hey everyone, looking for some opinions on this autograph before I spend the money to have it professionally authenticated.

It’s a vintage Champion Michael Jordan Washington Wizards #23 jersey, and it has what appears to be a Michael Jordan signature in silver paint marker across the back number.

The jersey itself appears to be Champion Authentic Athletic Apparel jersey, size 52, Made in Korea. Unfortunately, there’s no COA, hologram, or other authentication with the signature.

I’ve tried to compare it others online but I’m not sure at all. Tbh it would almost be too good too be true but I don’t want to get my hopes up.

For anyone familiar with Jordan’s autograph, what are your thoughts? Does it look legit and consistent with genuine examples from his Wizards-era years?

I’m considering sending it to PSA/DNA, JSA, or Beckett if people here think it’s worth a shot.

Appreciate any opinions good or bad. I’d rather know the truth!

TIA

I used to send cards to various players in the early 90’s with a self-addressed & stamped envelope hoping for signed cards. No idea if these are legit autographs (or possibly clubhouse attendants). Here are a few on card “autographs”.

Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Brian Jones autograph – looking for opinions from Rolling Stones autograph collectors

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’d really appreciate some opinions from collectors who are familiar with Brian Jones’ autograph.

The first two photos are mine (front and back of the signature). I’ve had it for many years and, a long time ago, I tried comparing it with examples I found online. At the time I wasn’t convinced either way, so I put it aside and never looked into it again.

Recently I decided to revisit it and found the last three images online. After comparing them carefully, I was surprised by how many similarities I noticed, not only in the overall style but also in details such as the dedication, the capital letters, the flow of the signature and the way “Jones” is formed.

I also know that Brian’s signature seems to vary quite a bit depending on the period and the circumstances in which it was signed, so I’d really value the opinion of people with experience in early Rolling Stones autographs.

Do you think my signature is consistent with an authentic Brian Jones autograph, or do you see any red flags?

If you think it’s not genuine, I’d really appreciate it if you could explain which characteristics lead you to that conclusion.

Authenticity Opinion Request (is this really...) Stone Temple Pilots & Motley Crue Autographs

Thumbnail

2 Upvotes

Hey guys! As some background info, I'm a record store owner in North Central Arkansas, and I recently acquired a folder full of what looks like magazine photos that were singed by the members of Motley Crue and STP.

They came from a local shop that closed in 2004 called The Sound Station. From what locals have told me, the owners of that store used to be pretty connected with higher ups in the music industry, and were known to regularly receive backstage passes to shows with headlining bands. Really cool story, that I've only vaguely been filled in on, but supposedly these signatures are from some of those shows they attended.

If anyone could give me some opinions on their authenticity, I'd greatly appreciate it!

Planning on submitting to JSA, so many Nolan Ryan autos come through here I wanted to ask for another opinion from the group.

I have previously had a Nolan Ryan come back not authentic (auto on poster) and am hoping to not give JSA $35 more dollars for a laugh. Thank you all.
