What usually works for me is to turn the SELLER of a fake autograph upside down and shake vigorously. This is an especially effective method when utilized from the top of a tall building or other edifice.

Be sure to pick up any dropped coins as well, that is key.

First, I look to see if it's supposed to be 'Babe Ruth'. If so, then there's a 99% chance it's a fake. Try to beat that success rate!

I'll be playing with Max Thursday-Saturday for the next three weeks. But I don't recommend the veal.

The only issue w analyzing it carefully against a known genuine is that NOBODY signs EXACTLY the same every time.

That said, I have learned it is so much more important to study and make your own good judgment, than rely on others. Not always easy tho.
