Ruth on Barnard ball
2 Attachment(s)
I am mainly a hockey and soccer guy, but in my searching, I came across this ball. I have no experience with Ruth autos, any opinions?
Thanks for your time. Added a side panel photo...is the Gehrig a secretarial also? |
Real IMO.
|
That looks like a typical secretarial to me...
|
Sorry. Looks like a "Clubhouse" signature of Ruth, this style is seen around 1928-1929 on a lot of Yankees team balls.
|
Jeff is quite correct. It is a well-known clubhouse signature, used quite a bit in the late twenties. Many otherwise wonderful 1927 balls bear this signature.
|
Thank you for the replies. How about the Gehrig on the side panel? Also a "clubhouse"?
|
You will typically get the best, and fastest responses, if you show the whole ball initially :-)
|
My apologies! I understand, however, I didn't have the other photo until after it was posted.
|
Ruth 100% fake. It's a period secretarial with some value actually. It's not a forgery, but rather secretarial.....

The Gehrig is genuine.

Jeff is quite correct again. That's a c. 1928-1929 Gehrig.
