Autograph Authentication

The owners of STAT Authentication, Jeff Stevens and Ted Taylor, have over 75 years of hobby experience - running shows, collecting autographs, designing collectibles, hosting signing sessions, etc. What we give you is our best opinion. We will VERIFY that a signature is/or is NOT authentic based on our experiences over the years. We do not use machines. We do not use chemicals. We will not stick something on your prized memorabilia to let you know that we saw it. We will provide OUR BEST opinions as to the legitimacy of your item/s and will provide a double- embossed document to that effect. (We will also keep a record of our findings on file.)

We’re the Professional Sports Authenticator (PSA) -- the world’s largest third-party authentication service. No more guesswork or taking the word of one dealer over another. Now you can have your trading cards and tickets graded by an unbiased group of the hobby’s most experienced grading experts -- and at the same time be assured that the only interest they have in your cards and tickets is to make sure they’re properly graded and carefully preserved. PSA’s permanent grading standard is recognized industry-wide as the best possible form of consumer protection. So when you see a card or ticket for sale in a holder displaying the PSA logo, you’ll know you can buy with the confidence that it has been properly and professionally graded. If you want to verify the grade of your item before you sell, have it graded by PSA and realize its full value without leaving any money on the table. And if it’s safe, long-term storage you’re after, PSA’s tamper-evident holder offers the most visually appealing form of safe storage known. Our protective inert, optical-grade plastic holder will help keep your top collectibles in great shape for years to come.
