Get ahold of Heritage and ask to speak to Gutierrez and ask him why it didn't pass authentication since he said it was real to begin with. It says right on the GAI COA "Guaranteed Authentic". Doesn't say "Our Opinion" like they say now it specificly says "Guaranteed Authentic". Worth a shot. Make these TPA's responsible for there actions and don't just blow it off as an Oh Well.

Sadly, the Ruth is no good.

I disagree with the previous authentications and agree with PSA.

At a quick glance.....

1. The "a" is too fat.
2. The "e" looks too much like a backwards "3". The middle should not come to a point (per se), but rather a mound if that makes sense.
3. The "u" is just off.

Tough to explain via email, is easier in person, but hopefully you understand!

Is it just me, or does the Ruth look like ballpoint? If so, that would be another giveaway, as ballpoints didn't become popular until the mid-fifties.

Towards the end of his life, Ruth signed quite a few postcard-sized photos in ballpoint.

This is a baseball I used to own, it's a Goldsmith 97 League baseball and it's signed by the 1938 Clinton Owls of the Three I League. Goldsmith was still using black and red stitching in 1938
