Always a little nervous to say on a Ruth but I think it looks great!

As Steve Cyrkin said when you posted it on the other site, there are many really really good Ruth forgeries out there. Scans / photss of both sides would help, but there are things about this I don’t like. I would be hesitant to buy this without a lot of other things falling in place. There’s obviously a stamp on the other side with a date which may help others opine. Bottom line, I would pass.

I should also add that it would help if you gave some additional background on the signature or any info you have. Many people may not give an opinion because it feels like some kind of “gotcha” thread.

I have no other information then what was provided. I get it Thursday and will be removing it from the frame. The stamp or other side might be a tell, but I still need to get an official letter to be refunded.

No gotchas, no feet to the fire.

I have also seen very uncharacteristic Brady with a Tristar sticker. The B might be weird this one time, but you know it’s legit because all that other strong factors

Not an expert but I agree with the others that if it's not real, it's really good.

I say "real" because I like the fact the the "e"'s in "sincerely" are consistent with the "e" in "Babe."

If it's a fake it's one of the most confident fakes I have ever come across of any autograph.

I already purchased it as Beckett said was likely to pass full authentication. Since it was unauthenticated eBay said I could get a refund if it doesn’t pass JSA.
