A clever forger would not be that far off on the autograph.

Is it me, or is the "Ruth" on the letter actually very close? The "Babe" is the dead giveaway.

And I agree with you on the secretary. This letter will stay with the book as I believe Ruth himself had the letter written, and it adds provenance to the book. Too bad for me he didn't sign it himself!
