This snooker ball was signed by snooker legend Dennis Taylor on March 5, 2022 in Stourbridge. Taylor is best known for winning the 1985 World Snooker Championship, where he beat defending champion Steve Davis in the final. The game is one of the most famous matches in professional snooker history, as despite losing the first eight frames, Taylor recovered to win 18–17 in a dramatic duel on the last black ball.
This item is supplied with a Certificate of Authenticity detailing when and where the product was signed. Our company number and details are included on the certificate.
Signing photo
The certificate for this product includes a photo of the sportspeople or celebrity signing one of the product line at the relevant signing session. For logistical reasons it is impossible to photograph every product being signed, but showing that the sportsperson or celebrity was present and signing items is, we believe, the best way to demonstrate the legitimacy of your products.
Numbered security hologram
Your certificate will come with a numbered security hologram, which will correspond to a matching, identically numbered hologram on your product. This ensures that the certificate can only be used to authenticate the item for which there is a corresponding number. If anyone attempts to remove either hologram it will destruct, so it is impossible to transfer the holograms to other items.
