Babe Ruth - Good or Bad?

[shelly]

A great ball to play catch with.

I recognize that ball and signature, and can remember seeing it in the past. I think it is certed by one of the big two authenticators.

Anyone else want to express an informed opinion, or just an opinion?

It is not something I would want to buy. But it would be nice to see the entire ball too.

I think you're right...I recall seeing it in the not so distant past. And regardless of any cert, the auto is bad.

I dont care if Ruth said it was good. I would not buy it. If this was a gotcha question I am more than happy to write a gotcha answer.

Shelly,

It is not a "gotcha" question. I have just never seen Ruth signed his name in that fashion, especially with the "e". Regardless of if or who might have said it was good or bad, just looking for opinions from others as to their views.

JT,

I initially had the same issue with "e". To my knowledge, there aren't any authentic exemplars with the lower case "e". But in looking closely at this one, I believe it's actually an "E" with a poorly defined middle portion of the letter.

Regardless..don't like it all.

I posted an auto that I received about a month back of the former yanks secretary (mark Roth). The r's are strikingly similar... Could Roth have been signing for Ruth back in the day?
