It seems like most people are kind of afraid to express their opinions about Babe Ruth autographs.

Since Ruth autographs are the most commonly forged, and many have gotten by the authenticators, I don't see the harm in going over the problems in detail so that we can avoid getting fooled in the future. The fact that a 'good' single-signed Ruth ball will sell in a major auction for over a $100K, but a questionable one will still sell in a major auction, but for much, much less, indicates that collectors will pay a helluva lot of money for something they have serious doubts about. That just seems plain stupid to me.
