Just wanted to get an educated opinion on this auto... I appreciate your imput. You guys haven't failed me yet on some others I have bid on. Working on an all 3x5 Heisman trophy winner collection. Thanks again! Jeff
I will throw in my agreement on it being questionable. IMF said it best with "too neat". The "B" is not typical and the letters in Jackson are too spaced out. I looked up some completed listings for a Bo signed 3 x 5 and only found one recent sale, which was worse than this one.
Thank you all for your opinions....I too agree with you guys. This one has been tough for me to get. I only need about 12-14 index cards to complete the run and the last few are the tough ones. I have all the current ones PSA/DNA certified. This has been a very fun project to work on with my kid, and not that expensive....yet. I guess Kinnick would be my white whale along with Ernie Davis...but the fun is in the chase! If any of you have any good leads on getting the tougher ones....other than eBay....please feel free to share. Off the top of my head I need, Plunkett (not tough, just don't have yet) Jackson, Tim Brown, Davis, Kinnick, Sinkwich, Bruce Smith, Davis, everyone after Tebow, Horvath, Billy Vessels, Billy Cannon. By the way, I enjoy reading about all the sports card related stuff you guys provide on see boards. It always brings me back to the day! Keep it up.
It does not compare well enough with my Bo Jackson autograph for me to feel comfortable about it.

I know this kind of OT, but has anyone here seen the show on the Big 10 Network entitled "The Big 10 Treasure Hunter?" The show revolves around a dealer who is visiting all the Big 10 cities looking at various collections and trying to buy things off them (ala' American Pickers). Anyway, the other day the show was in Iowa and the local guy had 2 or 3 Kinnick autographs which were pretty cool.

I agree Esquire Sports. The more that I look at it, the more concerned I become.

Take a look at the other questionable autographs he is offering as well (Len Bias, etc.).
