I have absolutely no idea who Chuck Saxton may be, but I know who he is not. He is not New Yorker cartoonist Charles Saxon (1920-1988). But go tell that to the eBay seller of a genuine Chuck Saxton sketch—if one can call it that—erroneously promoted as the work of Charles Saxon. No one familiar with Saxon's cartoons could mistake this for his signature or his art. Nevertheless, the new owner has also won himself a Letter of Authenticity. Congratulations, and caveat emptor.
