Wow, I have no idea as to the authenticity but if that's legit, what a stunning piece.

You claim to be he expert and I am certainly not, but I'll bite. This looks too perfectly formed. Both signatures are perfectly straight as if drawn on a line. The whole thing just looks artificial. Despite its perfect appearance, I would be very careful with this one prior to putting out hard earned money on it.

I agree with you completely, Jason. I don't believe this one for a minute.

Appears to be both done by the same hand, IMO

My first reaction was the same. To, to perfect. Plus could it just be a copy.? Plus if it's fake it's a very good one

Did that barnstorming tour go through Columbus? And if it didn't, why would those signatures be on that hotel stationery?

I'm usually skeptical of things that make no sense.

Although I did buy one that made no sense this summer it was taking a chance on a common signature that was on a minor league ball and the only description the flea market guy gave me was "That one is little league or something " And it was only $2.
I don't think I'd take the same sort of chance on this one. Being cheap can save a bit of trouble sometimes

The end of the "h" in Ruth is extra long. Not typical.

It was on the site as recently as Monday morning but it appears now to have been removed from the site / auction.

Looks like it's been pulled. Needless to say, it had been vetted by PSA.
