If the email is on the level, I am sure the aggrieved party would be willing to share the name of the "charity auction" from which the ball was obtained. Frankly, I find it a bit odd that the good doctor was able to buy such a high ticket item, pitch it to a number of auction houses/buyers, and then find Richard Simon when help was needed. But if this is a real case, an epic thread should unfold. Finding out where the ball was sold will start the ball rolling. The world of 1932 Ruth/Gehrig balls is a small one.
