Mr. Barack Obama 17 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 So, I need some help. In the past few months, I decided to drop a couple bucks on making my Orlando Magic collection greater and purchased three items. I purchased a JJ Redick autographed mini ball, a Dwight Howard and Jameer Nelson signed floor tile (yes, I know), and a Dwight Howard signed basketball. I didn't pay a lot for these and was actually surprised at how cheap they were, there's my first clue that they may be fake. They come with a Certificate of Authenticity, from the seller on eBay. Does anybody know much about how I can tell if these are real autographs? And if they aren't, how I can do something about it? Sounds stupid, I know. The Dwight floor tile (which I thought was a wooden floor tile or something, turned out to be a linoleum floor tile with an Orlando Magic sticker on it, no joke) and the Dwight basketball autographs are both significantly different. And the UDA (Upper Deck Authenticated Signatures) of Dwight are a lot different from both signatures that I have. Any help? Thanks in advance guys. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 I have a ball that Dwight autographed for me and he did it right in front of me. Upload a picture and I can tell you if they look similar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I received it and understood why. If it's real, it's still a cool (in a weird way) collector's piece with both of their autographs. If I ever go back to 1970 and rebuild a kitchen, you never know, it may come in handy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Barack Obama 17 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Dwight signed Basketball Dwight and Jameer signed ..... floor file :-/ .. and I'll upload the JJ mini ball later, which came with a Certificate of Authenticity from the Orlando Magic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marc Acres 3:16 418 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 The Dwight signature looks exactly like all of the ones I have, the Jameer looks slightly different but pretty close. Upload the JJ pic and I can check that one for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Upload the JJ pic and I can check that one for you. Both of the signatures are a lot different in the two that I have though. That has me worried. I'll throw that JJ pic up in a few.

NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Dwight sigs are definitely legit. The others I'm not too familiar with. I have JJ's and Jameer's along with a few others, but their signatures never really stood out to me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr. Barack Obama 17 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 JJ Redick mini ball, which also has the Orlando Magic logo on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NittanyBuc 757 Report post Posted February 10, 2012 Thanks man, much props. I appreciate the help and response. No problem. Sorry about the JJ sig, the autographed ball that I have is at my house. If I had it with me, I'd definitely get it out and compare. But like I said, the Dwight signatures match. The large uppercase D was the biggest giveaway to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
