How about sending us a scan of the original Ruth autograph with any identifying marks of the card company deleted from your scan?

Grab a beer? Please don't twist my arm, it being Friday and all.

I'm hoping to go home and find this waiting for me - I love cool stuff that doesn't require a professional to tell me it's cool

I spoke with Scott...

It is a unique situation I can say that much. As per my post I will keep all identifying details confidential...

In a nutshell:

A Babe Ruth autograph was inserted into a product, it was pulled and Scott ended up purchasing it. It came to his attention that the autograph was questionable. He spoke with the company and after much prodding they admitted their fault and expressed interest to fix it. This is the photograph of the autograph they want to replace the previous with. The company claims it is full JSA but Scott hasn't received any copies of the letter the company claims to have for this autograph and was only provided with that photograph.

I suggested he give the board some more insight on the situation as I believe there are members here who can help, but he has several reasonable concerns and it is up to him if he wants to do that.

His inquiries into exactly what was wrong were innocent, he wanted to point the abnormalities out to the company, I believe it just struck a bad cord with events that have happened in the past.

Anyways - I jumped the gun with my statements and I apologized to Scott for them.

Hope this helps...

Sean

All good Sean...no apology needed.

Appreciate you taking the time to speak with me.

I'm currently mulling over whether or not to post all the detials. Sounds like this situation is a bit more unique than I first assumed.

Thanks again.

Not to get off subject, but just to show card companies do screw up... here's the knob of what was supposed to be a Cobb gamer- Cobb was long retired when model numbers were put on bats..

I do have a quick question for you Sean.

Knowing the backstory, do you believe a JSA cert exists for the auto in this thread? And I'll throw in the disclaimer that Sean (nor I) have seen it (but I am extremely confident that it exists)?

Don't mean to put you on the spot, but many seem to think that there's no way the cert exists. And before anyone asks me to post it....I don't have it.

Must admit that this chat room is growing on me

Scott

After seeing the previous cert I believe a cert could exist... Should it? I think the answer is obvious - but if the question is could one exist the answer is yes - and I think there is somewhat of a problem if it does...
