That must look really nice together.
You should frame them with an apple and betting ticket.

Or you just need one extra item to link them both, a snake.

Maybe just coincidental, but Gehrig's version of "Babe" looks pretty simliar to Babe's actual signature.

Is it possible Gehrig was a 'secretarial' signer of Ruth's signature at times??

Anyone know why on the Babe Ruth 60th Home Run Autographed display piece, it seems whoever it was signed to has been erased/covered over.

"Better auction software?" "A web page you can actually navigate?"

I bought something from a Hunt's Auction for the first time earlier this year, and I spent months waiting for it, and then returning it. I felt like I had stepped back in time, and not in a good way.

They have made vast improvements. Also, I've been very impressed with their customer service. My only concern has been packing.
