Question about this Babe Ruth Signed Ball

[RichardSimon]

But CC is having a special now,,, in addition to a fake ball with Home Run King, you can get fakes with Champion Hot Dog Eater, Big Time Ladies Man, Tony Lazzeri is a lousy player, I always hated Miller Huggins and Earle Combs is overrated and should not be in the HOF. Personalization is extra and no photos allowed.

I do think less of Pete Rose because apparently he was somehow involved in the death of Kennedy by the inscription on the side of one of the balls.

I am sorry if I didn't make myself clear. I was asking the opinion of the board of the scan on the left that has (without proof) authentication by PSA/DNA, and Andrew Bradley who is unknown to me.

And look at these beauties for s**ts and giggles. Simply wow.

Even over the internet these balls smell bad. Whoever is signing their stuff is getting worse with their signatures. I always thought practice made perfect but these guys are giving that slogan a bad name also. Their stuff is so bad that they do not even need responses anymore.

I think you got a fair opinon from some very good people. It stinks.

Andrew Bradley was a forensic examiner (who at one time may or may not have been partnered with other forensic examiners of renown). He is now in the same place as Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, Ty Cobb, etc. but his masterpieces live on.

Andrew Bradley is not part of any crew. He is an expert in his filed.

That being said. I will tell you that he is not a person that I would trust with a Babe Ruth signiture. I am sure if it went to court he would have a big edge over Jsa and Psa, which is not saying a whole lot. I have no idea why he would authenticate that piece but it will be fun to find out.

5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent resource for document examination, September 23, 2000
By Andrew Bradley, Forensic Document Examiner
This review is from: Document Examiner Textbook (Hardcover)
This book provides an extensive survey of the entire field of document examination. It serves as an instruction manual as well as an historic and technical reference. Its contents are well organized and accessible, making this complex subject easy to understand. I highly recommend this book for both new and experienced document examiners, as well as for attorneys, investigators, and others who are interested in this field.

Bradly taught courses in forensic document examination and was the chief document examiner for Denver's county sheriff's department. I'm no autograph expert and can't knowledgeably give opinion on anyone's expertise in the area, but know he was a well known guy.

The dreaded Babe Ruth and Joe Jackson Sharpie autographs. Talk about scarce.

That is what I can never understand. Really good guys that belive they are right can be so wrong. All they need to do is research and they would turn them down in a second.

Richard, explain your hatred toward Miller Huggins. Curious.

Paul,
You're joking, correct? Richard doesn't hate Miller Huggins-Babe Ruth did...Richard was adding funny inscriptions that 'Ruth' might add to an autograph!

I think he is providing tongue-in-cheek examples of personalizations for fake Babe Ruth signatures.

Who is bidding on these auctions? I just don't know how they still get bidders.

My guess, people who are relatively uninformed, not doing any research and looking for a deal. The old adage still proves true, "If something sounds too good to be true..."

[Shoeless Moe]

sorry I read that wrong.
