• — THIS MAY VERY WELL BE THE BOLDEST BABE RUTH AUTOGRAPH ON A BASEBALL IN EXISTENCE TODAY. I KNOW I PERSONALLY HAVE NOT SEEN A BOLDER RUTH SIGNED BASEBALL

THE OTHER BABE RUTH SIGNED BALL IS ABOUT A $200,000 example of an AUTHENTIC Ruth. PLEASE NOTE THE SIMILARITIES BETWEEN MY RUTH AND THE $200,000 example. Save yourself about $175,000 with mine.

——THE BOLDNESS OF A BOLD CUT PAPER SIGNATURE, BUT ON A BASEBALL!! WHICH WOULD YOU RATHER HAVE????

• #PSA/DNA C81856 PLEASE NOTE: SHIPPING COSTS MAY CHANGE DEPENDING ON INSURANCE COSTS

• — JUST LOOK AT IT. I HAVE PERSONALLY NOT SEEN ANOTHER RUTH BALL STILL IN EXISTENCE THAT HAS AS LARGE AND BOLD OF A SIGNATURE AS THIS ONE.

• — THIS MAY BE ONE OF A KIND…….WIDE NIB SIGNATURE, INCREDIBLY BOLD WITH A VERY LIGHT COAT OF SHELLAC TO PRESERVE THE BOLDNESS

• — BABE RUTH WAS KNOWN TO APPLY A LOT OF PRESSURE WHEN HE SIGNED BASEBALLS. THESE OLD FOUNTAIN PEN WOULD OFTEN LEAK AS THIS ONE CLEARLY DID WHICH ACCOUNTS FOR SOME SMEARING THAT OCCURRED AS IT WAS SIGNED

• — UP CLOSE YOU CAN GET A SENSE OF THE OLD AGE OF THE FOUNTAIN PEN INK AS DROPLETS OF THE INK “POOLED” IN AREAS OF THE SIGNATURE

• — THE AUTOGRAPH HAS BEEN AUTHENTICATED BY PSA/DNA AND THE LOA IS SIGNED BY THE RENOWNED AUTHENTICATOR, STEVE GRAD BEFORE HE MOVED ON TO BECKETT

The baseball that Ruth signed in this listing is “FAIRPLAY AMERICAN LEAGUE”. I don’t have any other information about the ball’s manufacturer.
