Maybe Strickler did buy some fakes in lots. Anybody that collects
autographs, unless you get EVERY one of them in person, has gotten a
bad apple in their collection at one point or another. If they say
that they haven't they are either 1) lying or 2) in denial. Again,
not to beat a dead horse, but the same question pops into my mind when
these "professionals" are brought up: Who authenticates the
authenticators? Since these people did not see the item signed
themselves, they are only guessing and taking people's money for
giving a 50/50 answer. It makes me think of those carnies that take
money to guess your weight... they might be right by approximating
weight by appearance or they might be wrong. These "authenticators"
are doing no more and no less. They state their opinion by comparing
to other examples, but everybody's signatures varies by day, year or
cir***stance. I have convention-signed autographs by some celebs that
don't match examples on Autograph World and other reputable dealers,
but I have proof that the item was signed. Why were they different?
By the final day of a 3-day con and several hundred people, your
signature will not even look exactly like it did on the first day. :-)
