Ted - has that Ruth book been authenticated (or at least gotten an opinion on it)? Although I'm an autograph collector and certainly NOT an expert, I was told of a forger using these books as a medium in the 1970's. I know of the story because of a signed Ruth picture I had purchased that then failed JSA, PSA and GAI. I was told that this man did a great job of signing both Ruth and Gehrig and all of his work was done in the 1970's. The prefered medium was the Ruth photo I had, a Gehrig photo and these books.
