Actually, Topps still witnesses many of their signings. Rookie Premiere has a captive audience as well with all players who attend, and that event funds most of the first half NFL products. Similarly, Panini uses local contacts to witness signings too. It's not all bad, but Panini has had so...
I heard his auto is tough to authenticate, and he rarely signs himself. Not sure, but that rumor could have led to really low prices. Someone at the PSA booth with a bunch of Ali stuff said most of it is secretarial, and he has yet to buy one as a result.

In this photo, Michael Vick is kicking a Pitbull Puppy while his buddies laugh. In this photo, its the same puppy, but his collar is red instead...
First full size redemption is up! Locker to boot. People have been asking for these types of things for a LOOOOOONG time.

I agree with you 100%.
More about the look of the card than the content of a patch worn for two seconds at the rookie premiere.
With this being the last licensed on card autograph product for veteran signatures, there is no competition anymore. They are now one of a kind.
