About the Owner
Jason Bobbitt, owner of West Coast Authentic, has been in the sports memorabilia business for over 20 years. Jason has built the company into a leading wholesale producer in the autograph market not only in Canada but in the US, Brazil, UK and Japan. Jason Bobbitt's reputation in the autograph business recently caught the eye of the UFC and now has exclusive contracts with dozens of MMA fighters all over the world and handles all aspects of each fighter's autographed items, autograph sessions and appearances.
Jason Bobbitt began his business focusing primarily on Hockey memorabilia. West Coast Authentic has hosted hundreds of private autograph sessions with current and former NHL players including Hall of Famers. Private signings are West Coast Authentic's method of choice when obtaining truly authentic autographs.
Jason finds that the most rewarding part about having created West Coast Authentic is the amount of money that is donated to charities through his efforts at fundraising events. Each year hundreds of thousands of dollars are donated through auctions hosted by West Coast Authentic.
Jason is very active with junior hockey and supports local teams. Recently Jason was chosen by Hockey Canada to host silent auctions at the 2012 World Junior Hockey Championships in two different cities. The funds generated from the auctions help ensure that our country remains at the forefront in the development and promotion of amateur hockey.
