Elvis forgeries

A former friend of mine bought an autographed Elvis 8x10 photo from one of the 'Memphis Mafia' - these are the
has-beens that used to be bodyguards/janitors/bellmen/errand boys for Elvis in his life.  Most of them haven't had
any real work since.  He paid $350.

He took the photo to an appraiser - and was told the Kodak paper the picture was printed on was manufactured
beginning in the mid-80's, long after Elvis had died.  The signature was a fake.

Look real closely at the sellers on these items - do they look like sincere fans or collectors???  Or just conmen?
