I have been buying a few signature cards of late and many of them are pretty poor signatures by the players.
I know the players have to sign a lot of cards, around 240 in general, but their signatures are very poor examples of their real or 'authorised' signatures. For example Franklin and Hodge sign different signatures for fans as compared to paid authorised memorabilia.
This years certified signatures by select are the worst signatures i have seen in years. The AFLPA stepped in a few years back and set a fee for any players signing cards for select, as the young guys were getting nothing for signing the future force series.
So now all players get a fee per card for signing them should they take a little more time and effort in signing these cards as fans and collectors chase them and see them as a high end card for their sets.
i have attached a few examples below, there are some really ordinary examples here.
The Ben Ainsworth Future Force is very poor, he may be learning his a b c's.
Drew Petrie 300 game card is crap for the $600+ price, he must have know he was going to be delisted.
And the winner is:
Number 1 in my crappiest signature set is Robert Murphy 300 game card, check it out, its a very poor signature card especially for the diehard doggies collectors who have to shell out $600+ for the card. i can only assumed he signed it the day after the grand final win by the dogs?
What is your crappiest signature card?
