Leon or anyone else...

Is SGC in contact with Hunt's Auction in regards to the Ruth card or are we all going to pretend that there is nothing wrong with a card selling for $50,000+ with some serious questions about its authenticity?

SGC is very aware of the possible issue and the Hunt Auctions Ruth being auctioned now with that possible issue. I spoke with a VP there 2 days ago and they are aware of this thread.

The below D350 Ruth is currently being auctioned. Given that the back doesn't seem blurry, I assume that it's authentic?

Looks like it either has some bleedthrough from the front ink or wet sheet transfer from being stacked on another card.

At this point a lot of us would do better grading than the TPG's. I don't trust them like I used to. I am being careful with everything I buy, especially graded.

A good friend had to return this not long ago. Worst looking e94 backstamp I have seen. And I currently own one already deemed fake, after slabbing in a graded holder. It makes me want to vomit.

As for the Ruth in question...probably good but I can't be positive from the scan.

I see no problems with that Ruth card, it is good.
