Help: Ruth/Gehrig Signature Ball Authentic?
One of my father’s hobbies was collecting Hall of Fame baseball autographs. Over the years he collected over 150 of them, the pride of which is a 1932 Yankees ball signed by Ruth and Gehrig among others. He unfortunately passed away recently and I don’t know if what he has is real or not. Here are some pictures. I really appreciate everyone’s perspectives before I spend a ton of money going to an authentication company.

I am far from an expert, but the Ruth and Gehrig don't even look close.
Regardless of opinions, do a search to satisfy yourself and I'm sure that you'll see great differences from authentic autographs.

I'm with Tim on this one. Not a Ruth/Gehrig expert, but know it when they're bad, and these don't even look like they're in the ballpark. We have several experts here and I'm sure they'll offer an opinion.

I'm not a Ruth Expert by any stretch, but can clearly tell this one is not good by just glancing at it. Babe's signature did not slant like that. Sorry, but no good.
