Hey all, I am seriously considering picking up this Babe Ruth auto to add to my collection. I personally think it looks good but I'm not an expert on Ruth. Hopefully, some of you with Ruth knowledge can chime in. Link to the image is below, Thanks!

Begin your your decision making by learning Ruth' s signature characteristics. This is not even close in my opinion.You will see that this starts off bad ....look at the form of this "B" and compare it to all the Ruth examples you can find of his real signature and you will understand.

That was my first thought also. Looks like a drum head or something metallic. Whatever it is, it is NOT good.
