1931 Babe Ruth Autograph Ball--Traced Over--JSA

[travrosty]

so the first 150 goes back to pay for the authentication. there was nothing there to authenticate. how authentication is possible when ink is covering it up?

i guess there is no downside to calling it good. who's gonna say its NOT a ruth sig when no one can see it? which begs the question - just what is the allure to this ball, what makes it worth anything? I would think the heavy trace over would render it trivial.

if just the ruth sig were removed from this ball, would it look any different?

just a few points to ponder.
