Autograph verification

throughout my career as a collector Authenticator and also a dealer at one time I have probably seen more autographs than anyone else in the world I noticed that there was a tremendous amount of fraud in the industry and no one had really taken an interest in cleaning this up there was no governing body or policing whatsoever at some point I decided that I was going to abandon the selling end of things and start an autograph authentication business JSA is the world's foremost autograph authentication company and we authenticate notable autographs for collectors auction houses dealers and people that just find things or inherit things in their home we have a very large exemplar file that is full chronologically put together and what it does it gives us the proper tools to be able to authenticate to spend any water graph that comes our way we create value in autographs when items are submitted to us for verification we authenticate the items and give them a letter of authenticity the letter of authenticity is great provenance in terms of the person trying to sully item or feel good about the item that they've purchased this started off as a hobby and very often no one attributed a value to any of these autographs however over the last 30 35 years it has grown incredibly and it has increased in value a lot of people have invested in this as a viable investment and what's happened is it's taken off you know into the mainstream it's no longer just a few people collecting it's it's gotten into the hands of fans or even people that just want a good investment passion is the most important part of what I look for in an applicant someone that has the aptitude to indeed authenticate so many of the people that have worked for me have had a large background a very extensive background in autograph collecting so we're constantly at JSA looking for that next great Authenticator I often refer to them sometimes as show rats somebody that's been around it an awful long time so that they've had that exposure you can't get that in a classroom and all of this knowledge along with the database and our reputation is what goes into our letter of authenticity [Music]
