I have a friend who stumbled on a spectacular find a few years ago that involved several signed 33 and 34 goudeys, diamond stars, a 34 all star baseball all that were authenticated by PSA. They came from a batboy for the Tigers. Within that lot are these 3 signed famous sluggers that all include Ruth. PSA rejected these and wanted to get opinions on here for him regarding these. Jason May can backup the Goudeys as he bought most. My friend still has a 34 Goudey Gehrig signed. Anyways here they are and thanks for checking them out

I agree with David, definitely not authentic

Thanks guys. Here are a few of the other Ruths that came from that purchase. I was wondering of these ruths look weird due to the book which is small and very awkward. I'm not disagreeing but it is strange that these 3 would be forgeries though certainly difficult to authenticate.
Interestingly I had a this exact same book in reprint form signed by Gehringer:)

The top Famous Sluggers Babe Ruth is 101% not real. The same person undoubtedly signed all 3...

Strange that the 'R' looks so bad yet so consistent. Almost like it wasn't a forgery attempt.
