Re: Great looking Jeter bat on ebay.........

Before I ask, I want one thing clear....I'm in no way questioning the legitimacy of the bat. I'm sure it's 100% authentic.

My Question

I wasn't aware Steiner authenticated items not received directly from the players themselves. When did they start doing this? The Steiner letter states the bat was part of a private collection.

I saw a Steiner certified Jacke Robinson autograph display which struck me, as I thought they marketed only in person autographs. Guess there are exceptions. Though that's the only vintage Steiner autograph I've seen.

Forgot. Steiner marketed pages from Joe DiMaggio's diary, which came from the Hunt/DiMaggio Estate auction. This was 'after the fact' product.
