Default Fake Ruth

Thought I would pass this along, I purchased this a while back so I could see what i looked like in hand. Under a loop you can tell its been printed on a inkjet printer and even the pencil markings are printed on so I returned it since it was sold to me as an "original". Just wanted to let people know as its hard to tell some times in photos as the pixels blend and makes it look more real than it is.

Hope this helps someone,
Brad

Edited to add the last photo was of an actual Red Sox photo that was mine that I picked up and sold a while back from the Sporting News. So that one was at least real but this one is not.
