I missed all this action, and just got caught up. I've put some thought into this and Sharon has convinced me to become a " trusted antiquarian dealer."

Does that mean the stuff you deal in is antiquarian....or you're antiquarian? 

 A little bit of both, but it does have some snap to it.

Kinky.

I appreciated the Friday-ness of this since a lot of people have tomorrow off.

This is over my head. I thought “antiquarium” were people who were against other folks keeping fish as pets.

I do not sell inauthentic material ever and I have indeed sold authentic ditko signatures in the past (which have passed CBCS labels and what not) but most unfortunately, this was not one of those times. 

 

 

I would call into question those CBCS books.

Considering this is the guy who 'authenticated' the Ewert books as unrestored, why would I believe the authentification of sigs?

I found sufficient reason based against my claims of the signature's authenticity

Maybe he talked to Rick, from Pawn Stars Ditko expert??

After reading the flip flop from this guy I would question anything that came out of his mouth.

Here's how you can be sure that these were faked by the same person: all the signatures have slightly C-shaped apostrophes before the year abbreviation. Stan Lee rarely signed with a year like that, and when he did, he barely put a dot on the paper for the apostrophe.

I have thoroughly studied Stan and Steve Ditko's signatures throughout the years and I am almost certain this is not any good. The "s" is far too enclosed within itself, and the double "e" at the end is a wretched mockery of a forgery. 

Of course, "This above all: to thine own self be true" But if it were me I would say a certain no.

But once again, that is just my own opinion, I could be wrong.

Hopefully it turns out well for you at the end, and I hope you the best with them/

 

that avatar looks familiar

If he makes the HOS can we please put Antiquarian in parenthesis next to the name?

[Buzzetta]

Something like that... people would have a conversation about pressing and he would jump in saying something like, "this reminds me an obtuse conversation that I had in passing with Kurt Cobain while vacationing in France with my father shortly before Cobain died."

I think its the same guy. Could fabricate a story in seconds. Kind of like Frisby in Hocus Pocus and Frisby on the Twilight Zone.
