It isn't stamped, I can see the ink lines from some of the overlaps. Does Lou have an extra letter in his first name???

Default David--
The whole thing looks bogus & contrived to me.

I'm certainly no expert, but i have owned a few Ruth signed checks in the past, so i guess i can comment. the Ruth sig actually looks fine to me, it's the Lou that looks off- maybe club house?

The only clubhouse Gehrigs known appear on late thirties team balls--almost always 1939--and look nothing like a genuine Gehrig.

Since no one asked yet, what do the markings look like on the ball as you can't see them in any pictures

What you see is all that is visible on display. I'm sure the markings are fine, though, for a 1927 OAL ball, as you can see a bit of the Ban Johnson signature in the first photo.

D, tough call. I wouldn't buy it, but thats not the question you present. Off hand don't like the single quote marks, the lead into the "e" in Babe and the cross of the "t" in Ruth. I also don't like the long Louuuuu. Odd because some of the flow feels right doesn't it. Tough one. And Ruth did make the "R" error with regularity and the under flow of the "R" though off in location, the flow is on. Do we receive a clear answer? This feels like a test.

No test. I have nothing to reveal.
I don't know--not sure myself. Really just want to see how others feel.

I'm really disappointed that the two guys with the trained "autograph eye" haven't offered their opinions.

Could this be one of those reproduction balls?

Note how the Cedric Durst hits the seam, yet cleanly goes across the hole. You'd think there would be a "catch" in the fountain pen there.
