1928 Fro Joy Babe Ruth Authenticity?
Hey all picked up a collection this weekend and stumbled upon a couple of 1928 Fro Joy Ruth's. I have done some research and read quite a few threads but am still on the fence if authentic or not. A lot of the older threads that had photos of real vs reprints the photos weren't able to be seen anymore. From what I have read you can't really be positive if real or not especially not having them in hand. Hoping to get some opinions from the forum if they are good or bad before i send to Beckett. Thank you!
Chris

Chris-- you should ask Leon to move this to pre war where there are likely to be more folks familiar with this offering

Thank you all for the responses. Leon, I was hoping you would chime in with your opinion. I saw a lot of older posts you made about this issue and seem very knowledgable about them. I will send to Beckett with my fingers crossed!

The inks are bleeding through from the front to the back and the square boxes on the back connect at the points(the fakes don't connect). These are good signs as to being authentic.

These Fros are real I would bet my BigBeerBelly on it.
The little boxes have lines that are touching most black and white fakes are not this way. Def Real Deal nice grab!

Period
I am not sure if it is significant or not, but the OPs No. 1 card does not have a period on the front at the end of the description...?

Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but the pix are already posted here. Question.....what is up with the top of Babe Ruth's cap in the two cards above? Is that a wad of bubble gum stuck to the button?

It is a piece of bubble gum. The photographer for the set kindly asked Ruth not to chew gum while he was taking pix and Ruth kindly obliged by parking the wad of top of his cap.
