Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Joe Theismann Signed Washington Redskins Action Photograph with JSA Authentication Joe Theismann signed color action photograph. The image depicts the quarterback in a Washington Redskins uniform during game play. The signature is executed in black marker and includes the inscription +7. This item is a 2004 reproduction by Photo File and carries official NFL licensing, evidenced by a holographic sticker (Number: 00132516501). Authentication is provided by James Spence Authentication (JSA) via a Basic Certification card and a corresponding sticker (Certification Number: CH61183) located on the lower right of the photograph. Provenance / Authentication Note: This item originates from a single-owner collection assembled by a dedicated sports fan with a strong focus on Notre Dame and New York Yankees memorabilia. The collector actively pursued autographs over many years through in-person events, including games, autograph shows, and visits to National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum during player events, as well as through direct mail requests to athletes and celebrities. The collection included supporting material such as handwritten correspondence sent to athletes (in some cases with payment enclosed), along with photographs of the collector with various signers. A portion of this same collection was featured in our March 21st auction, where multiple items were authenticated by James Spence Authentication (JSA). In regards to any items with signature(s): While this specific item has not been individually submitted for third-party authentication, it originates from the same collection and shows consistency with previously authenticated pieces. As with many large autograph collections, there may be a small number of facsimile or clubhouse-style signatures present. Based on the overall provenance and our review, we maintain a strong level of confidence in the authenticity of most items. Bidders are encouraged to review all photos carefully and bid according to their own level of comfort. No additional authentication documentation is included unless visible within the lot photos.
