It's hard from just those pics as its light, though it does feel right from what can be seen and how the age on the ball and ink look. Watch for a possible traceover on Ruth, I can't tell if that is a double stroke on the "R" or just from the fountain pen.

It's looks good from here, but it's one of those baseballs you would want to examine in-hand.

The story checks out the guy has a picture with Ruth, Dempsey etc and was a mayor for a mideast town. Thanks guys.
Can you get a tighter shot of just the last name that isn't angled? Still really worried about a potential enhancement that looks possible on the "R"

I met with the guy and these were the only photos I took. JSA will be local and he is meeting them on Wednesday for an LoA. He overpaid for the ball so I likely won't have a shot at it :mad:
