This is the first Ruth autograph I've ever reallllly been torn on or flip flopped on. The "a" (although such a simple letter) is tough to replicate. And it is spot on. However there are other letters that are really off. Mainly the "h". What's tough to figure out is if it's simply a forgery....or was Ruth trying to fit his signature in the white/plastic area, and altered it a bit to make it fit.
I think the answers lies in: Is the Gehrig good?
And I definitely agree that there are forgers out there using this medium to cover up inconsistencies. That's so true.
