cobb authentic?

[JimStinson]

The above information is correct !

I can remember a specific incident that happened at a card show years ago. Maybe some of you were there. But what happened is someone walked into the show with six or seven beautifully framed Babe Ruth checks. Triple matted , UV glass the whole enchilada ! his price was "reasonable" ...and man ! were dealers and collectors fighting over those !!! He said they were priced right for quick sale , cash only and anyone that tried to inspect them too closely or asked too many questions he was on to the next potential buyer...and there were PLENTY !!! He sold them all in about 15 minutes and was gone. When finally the excitement wore off someone opened one and guess what ??? color copies all

I think one of those checks ended up on "Pawn Stars" the other night. A Ruth check in a frame that looked suspicious and had an equally suspicious authentication letter that looked like a laser copy.

Is it usually pretty easy to tell once the check is in hand?

it had an auction LOA only from PSA and man boobs Grad authenticated it right through the frame just like a complete boob...How fitting.
