Babe Ruth Autograph Opinion Please
 

Looking for opinions on this Ruth cut. Also, what are the key areas to focus on when looking for consistency in his sig?

Thanks for your input.

I personally don’t like the First B. Too much of a loop up on the start of it and seems a tad too short and fat... the connection to the E looks a little off as well. However, it’s not a terrible forgery and could just be an authentic signature that is not of the highest quality. I would stay away personally though.

I don’t like it either

Some things to note, although his sig can vary sometimes,
these traits are pretty common to all:

The "B" and the "a" should never touch.
The second "b" in Babe is always the tallest letter.
Heavy Pen pressure on the bottom of the loop in "R"
"R" and "u" should never connect, they are unique letters, not flowed together
Heavy pen pressure should form ink ball at the end of the cross in "t" that goes through the "h"
Heavy pen pressure should form ink ball at the end of the "h"

I wouldn't touch it. The paper is pretty indicative of a fake.

Great things to know
