New York Consolidated Laws, Arts and Cultural Affairs Law - ACA § 60.02. Certificate of authenticity; contents

(a) describe the collectible and the name of the sports personality who signed it; and

(b) contain an express warranty, which shall be presumed to be part of the basis of the bargain, of the authenticity of the autographed collectible. Such warranty shall not be negated or limited because the dealer or the supplier in the certificate does not use formal words such as “warranty”, or “guarantee”, or because such dealer or supplier does not have a specific intention or authorization to make a warranty or because any statement relevant to the autographed collectible is, or purports to be, or is capable of being, merely the dealer's or the supplier's opinion; and

(c) unless such information appears in legible fashion on the collectible itself, specify whether the collectible is offered as one of a limited edition and, if so:

(a) provides the buyer a catalog which (i) is available to the public, (ii) contains a picture and description of the collectible, and (iii) contains a warranty and information which meet the requirements of paragraphs (b) and (c) of subdivision one of this section; and

(b) provides a separate invoice that specifies the purchase price and date of sale.

The dealer shall be required to maintain a copy of such catalog and information regarding the sale of items described therein for a period of five years following the year of such sale.
