I personally don't like it. It is not a Boston playing days signature for sure. I would not touch it as is for a thousand dollars. Just my opinion of course and everybody has one. Interested to see others comments.

Without a doubt it is NOT a Boston playing-days signature. And I'm not particularly fond of it, either.

Did the OP ask if it was an early sig from his Boston Playing Days? I thought he just wanted to know if the sig was authentic.

The article said it was a 100 year old autographed photo which would indicate it was a Boston playing days photo, I know that is not the case but I don’t like it as a 1930’s autograph. No quotation marks would indicate at least post 1927 or so autograph. Just does not look right to me but of course I could be dead wrong.

The article said, and I quote, "and we're told experts believe it was signed while he was a member of the Boston organization, which would make this pic 100+ years old!!!"


Some experts.

I have seen some examples of that photograph, all having been produced after Ruth died. I am not making any statement about the autograph, but I have seen 4-5 examples of that photo unsigned and all have dated from the 1960's-1980's, possibly a hair earlier, but not WWII era or earlier.

Babe was with the "Boston" Braves in 1935?
