I'm assuming you mean since the Ruth ball has red thread that it's not the right era ball. Is that correct?

I thought red thread was the standard for official AL balls in the 1930s?

No. Ruth signed plenty of red stitch only balls. Shelly usually uses the red faced smiley to show his disapproval of autographs but someone beat him to it.

Thanks for your opinion Brendan. I guess I'll let the cat out of the bag. These items are being offered at an estate sale. If you happen to be in the area maybe worth dropping by. Here's the info:

Sale Location:5 Arrowhead Ln
Rolling Hills Estates, CA 90274

Sale Dates and Times:
Thursday Sep 28, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Friday Sep 29, 9:00 am to 3:00 pm
Saturday Sep 30, 8:00 am to 12:00 pm

They have multiple items "authenticated" by Ken Golden at Scoreboard. Are these all bad? Here's the web address if you want to look at the pictures.

I'll post a few for those that can't get to the link or if it disappears. I notice the Ruth ball seems to be gone from the listing. Maybe if some of it is good, someone can go cherry pick the good stuff.

That's not an opinion. It's a fact.

The Mantle is a forgery.

As for the DiMaggio, it could be authentic, but I need to see the full sig.

I use this when its bad. Ghost stole my red so used another color.

So, I was just wondering if anyone ended up going to this sale. If so, did you buy anything? I'd be curious to know what price they had on the fake Ruth.

Did anyone notice the jordan autographed photo. So bad it made me cringe!

There were a couple of different ones. One signature on an 8x10 and another on a store display. Were they both bad?
