Good catch on the h, the e has similar fluidity issues although I’m not sold that either proves it to be legitimate.

The truth is, Ruth’s auto, while beautiful, has more variation that most collectors realize. I think the consensus view on here (good forgery/odd authentic sig) is spot on.

I think it’d be a lot easier to determine one way or the other if you could have it hand.
