When I first looked, the Daniels sig I zoomed too (his is pretty
obvious though a few people have done a fairly decent job forging) but
this one was obvious as were a couple others I could make out. Also
there are other red flags. I saw that Daniels photo too; people need
to learn that any photo of a celeb does not count. But a photo of
them signing the exact item can be studied; plus if you save other
things to go with it,you can prove he was there and you were... ignore
phtoos like this. There's not even a poster in the photo!
and you are right. Half these posters, as I was looking at them had
rare names, names of deceased people etc. The forgers train of
thought: :Everyone wants this for their collection. The newbie or
dealer hunter's thought: "WOW I can get that for my collection and
cheap!" that's a dangerous mix...
It's up to people with a little more common sense and experience to
help those newbies and people who can't see past dollar signs.
