REA Gary Cooper

[prewarsports]

Just so you guys know, I was not commenting AT ALL on the signature itself, I have not even glanced at the autograph in question so trust me when I say I have no pinion on it whatsoever. I was simply stating the caveat that you cant go by "family" alone.

Question Family members the same way you should question TPA's, do all your homework YOURSELF and if you feel comfortable with all evidence and opinions taken into account, you will be right as often or more often than with Baseball Cards (considering trimming and restoration etc).

I probably should have put this in the first post because its obvious now that people think my post was an endorsement of the signature. If Jim and others who know Ruth better than me say its bad, it probably is. I was ONLY commenting on the family aspect of it and hopefully I did not ruffle too many feathers!
