I would say yes though someone like Mack would be a bigger name aND should stand out.

If they do that, it's pathetic and borderline scandalous.
At the rate they're paid, they can afford to spend at least a couple of minutes on every signature.
Why would a portion of an entire impressive collection determine if the remaining signatures are authentic or not?
When someone builds a large collection, he doesn't obtain all of his signatures from the same source. Some are in person, some are through the mail, some are from auctions or trades or were gifts, and some are forgeries.
For authentication services to only check certain signatures is asinine. It's their entire job to authenticate signatures. No wonder there are so many authenticated forgeries for sale.

Mike, my HOFer collection is almost all PSA/DNA slabbed- I've submitted at least 150 and maybe more to PSA over the years and it is always frustrating when one fails to pass. I've had some luck with re-submission and some not-so-good-luck.
Your comment about seeing flaws when you looked closer does ring true with some for me too. I have a file somewhere of "failed' items.
I have a pile of big names I need to submit, most from big auction houses with JSA letters, as it has been several years since I last submitted.
Hope you are well

I see what you're saying about the Mack, I have an authenticated auto of his I've been wanting to do a custom for and when you really examine closely there are several minor inconsistencies. I'm surprised they rejected it and I'd be surprised if that auto turned out not to be authentic. The stroke is completely consistent and the way he starts both the C and M seems to be consistent with other authenticated examples. The Cuyler looks pretty decent too but I can see why that one of the three might have failed, not sure what their thought process is on the Rixey he always seems to cross the "x" in the last name at the end and has the two weird "p"'s in his first name. Worst case scenario I'd imagine the Mack and Rixey are definitely fine and if the Cuyler is a clubhouse signature it's really, really well done.
