everyone knows these are fake, but why did psa pass them? i thought they were #1 at authenticating...could it be possible this seller works for psa and stick the stickers on himself or knows something that works for psa?

PSA is like a lot of authentication companies these days...I. E. they are a bunch of clowns! There have been numerous cases of them dropping the ball like this, and much worse!!! They even authenticated the "only known autograph" of some english boxer from many years ago. If its the only known example then how did they know it was real? What did they they have to compare it to?? the best thing that any collector can do these days is to self educate yourself in this wonderful hobby!!!!

Take what the guy in the link wrote with a grain of salt. Because I don't see a single early Al Pacino autograph example posted in that link to prove his hot air correct. So how in the hell would this supposed "ONE OF THE FOREMOST EXPERTS IN THIS TYPE OF MATERIAL IN THE WORLD" know what Al Pacino's early signature looked like because those two signature are similar but definitely not the same.
