Another Ruth auto on e-bay. Real?

I used to do a really good Ruth sig. If a show was slow and I got really bored, I'd go buy a new baseball and sign it with a ball point pen. I'd then give it to a friend and let him take it around show and see what kind of offers he could get. It's amazing how many dealers and collectors thought the ball was real because they wouldn't bother to check the ball and there are few if any ball point pen sigs on balls out there done by Ruth since it was invented only a few years before his death.

I learned to forge sigs in Jr High during study hall so I could write hall passes for myself
