Interesting that Heritage rejected it. Doesn't Mike Gutierrez work for them now?
Anyway, Gutierrez' name is on the Global COA, so perhaps he had a change of mind along the way... Regardless, I do not think that Goldsmith Ball is as early as 1928 (as was stated in the letter of provenance). Last edited by perezfan; 03-10-2016 at 11:12 AM. |

Get ahold of Heritage and ask to speak to Gutierrez and ask him why it didn't pass authentication since he said it was real to begin with. It says right on the GAI COA "Guaranteed Authentic". Doesn't say "Our Opinion" like they say now it specificly says "Guaranteed Authentic". Worth a shot. Make these TPA's responsible for there actions and don't just blow it off as an Oh Well.

Sadly, the Ruth is no good.

I disagree with the previous authentications and agree with PSA.

At a quick glance.....
1. The "a" is too fat. 2. The "e" looks too much like a backwards "3". The middle should not come to a point (per se), but rather a mound if that makes sense. 3. The "u" is just off. Tough to explain via email, is easier in person, but hopefully you understand! |

Is it just me, or does the Ruth look like ballpoint? If so, that would be another giveaway, as ballpoints didn't become popular until the mid-fifties.
