......and I thought I was the only one who thought of this.


Maybe she just wants a piece of the action.

Ruth's granddaughter aside, I respect the opinion of Ron Keurajian, over the alphabet soup guys, every day of the week.

I guess if psa or jsa aren't, someone has to be.

I would go with Ron too, the guy has the pulse on Ruth auto's.

If Peter Nash and his investigation conclusively prove that PSA and JSA have make these mistakes what does that mean for the autograph hobby?
Who is responsible for refunding the buyers if buyers demand a refund?
If people are holding $50,000 Babe Ruth baseballs and a report comes out, that conclusively proves that those baseballs are forgeries, what happens then?
I have discussed this with several very knowledgable people. Their conclusions, based on the pictures that Peter Nash has shown, are that at least three different people signed those baseballs. These opinions are based on pictures of the baseballs obviously not the actual item, but opinions, based on pictures, in this instance do have value.
I would also think that such prolific forgers, if Peter Nash is correct, who have proven that they can consistently beat PSA and JSA, have forged many other expensive and historic baseballs too. That is where the big money is.

Richard,
Does anybody really believe that there are that many nearly pristine single signed Ruth balls around today?

You either have to be the second coming of Houdini or have a very friendly croupier dealing you the cards to 'consistently beat' a Casino.
