Author	Topic: 121411205681: Charles Bassett signed photo
dtemple Member Posts: 729 From: Longview, Texas, USA Registered: Apr 2000	posted 08-21-2014 08:31 PM Compare these Bassett "autographs" from the same seller... (ended June 2nd): 121349853872 with this one currently offered... 121411205681. Except for a very slight change in the angle of the signature they are identical. As per the description, the seller offers a full refund if any autographed is determined to not be genuine so I first thought the high bidder returned it and the seller posted it again. However, if you compare the zoomed-in pics side by side you will find the angle of the signatures differs slightly. Forgeries or autopens? I haven't seen "CA Bassett" until these two auctions.
