Welcome to one of several of my autographed memorabilia auctions I'll be holding over the coming months. I'd like to thank everybody who has bid in my previous auctions. You are bidding on an autographed 8x10 card board backing that was used for my photos to not be bent upon returning fan mail...Ali signed the cardboard Muhammad Ali Serve God He is the Goal 5-16- signed in blue sharpie...bold and large....obtained via fan mail in the 1980s..certificate of authenticity from GLOBAL... My concentration will center in on autographed 3x5 index cards, autographed postcard and 8x10 photos (George Brace and Jim Rowe), and miscellaneous items signed by former sports greats and celebrities in all fields. I will be adding items on and off, so keep checking back to see the other items I've listed. If you're bidding on more than one item, I'd recommend waiting until the final auction has ended and then take a discounted shipping and handling charge for combined items. Shipping and Packaging details: I ship everything with cardboard backing. Additionally, I slip all autographed photos inside sturdy photo-protective sleeves. Payment details: Typically, I ship paypal payments right away. Checks must clear.  I cannot be held responsible for items lost or damaged in shipping. If you're concerned about this, please purchase optional insurance - just let me know, and I'll be happy to add that on to the mailing cost. How I obtained my autographs, and why I promise a FULL MONEY-BACK GUARANTEE: As a kid, from roughly the years 1965 to 1973, and later from 1974-the present, I have amassed an enormous collection of autographed sports and celebrity memorabilia. In most cases, using Jack Smalling's baseball address lists and other assorted address lists, I wrote to both active and retired baseball players, sending them letters, requests for signatures, and self-addressed-stamped envelopes. This is how I obtained thousands of autographs. I also obtained many autographs in person at area parks and hotels.In the 1980's and 1990's, I travelled the country doing shows (20 National Conventions) and would buy quantities of autographs through player signings. I have every reason to believe that all of the autographs I'm auctioning are absolutely authentic. I stand by every item I sell. Upon purchasing an item from me through eBay, you may return that item, in the condition in which I shipped it to you, any time within **SIX MONTHS** of receipt of that item if you are not satisfied with its authenticity based on a professional opinion. Send it back immediately if you are not happy with the item. . I have had a number of autographs authenticated by Global Authentication. I would use PSA or Jimmy Spence but financially this does not make sense given the relative value of most of these items. If you choose to have them authenticate an item, I’ll gladly refund your payment if the item is found to not pass their test. I am selling each item "as is", per the guarantee I've promised above. All the old time autograph dealers know me and the professional authenticators will vouch for my reputation as well. I do this on a part time basis, so sometimes emails take a day. I have worked hard for my feedback rating. The last thing I want to do is damage my credibility, so if you have legitimate concerns about any item you win from me on eBay, I'll make every effort to remedy the situation to your satisfaction. Sincerely, Joe Binder Downers Grove, Illinois
