The daughter was only 5 years old when the Ruth photo was allegedly signed, and she was only in her early twenties when Cooper died. Is she saying she's been in charge of the estate since then (1961), and the photo was never recorded in a formal inventory done for the estate?
The question is do you trust the faimly or Jim? Read her book and come back and tell me if you would buy it.
