The Authentication of Legends
FDA Examination is an industry-leading forensics firm, specializing in signature authentication. Headquartered in New York, NY, the standards of investigation and service are high.
Full of checks and balances, the administration of the FDA cannot both certify and execute certificates for authenticated signatures for liability purposes. This must be done by an external third party which cannot consist of the auction house, again, for the reason of liability.
​
Due to our commitment to fidelity and process excellence, Smeltzer was retained for the certificate uploading process and has issued thousands of digital certificates for the administration and their respective brokers.
Smeltzers' team has been excellent to work with. Their flexibility was instrumental in the navigation of our business through the Covid-19 Pandemic and we're thankful to know that our processes are in good hands. If I need anything, I just call them and within twenty-four hours, it's done and it's done right,
no questions asked."
