The only thing missing is Joe's very evasive signature on the back of the card.
"Found in the same garage as a T206 Honus Wagner, signed and dated by Amelia Earhart, the day after her plane went missing over the Pacific Ocean."

Meh...
I'd rather have a Baltimore News Ruth that was signed by Jackson.

Ok... maybe you guys aren't looking at it correctly.
I don't think Babe Ruth signed that Jackson card. We all should know the card is a reprint. And the reprint was made after Babe Ruth died. But guys, it's that Card Saver I that Babe signed with a Magic Marker. (A Sharpie wouldn't make that wide stroke with the corners made as the direction of the marker changed.) I think there's a fair chance PSA would grade that Card Saver I. If it were a Card Saver III or higher, then I might be slightly skeptical about it, but that looks like a real Card Saver I.

Plot twist: Joe Jackson could not read or write. Maybe he saw a bunch of Babe Ruth autographed pictures and practiced trying to mimic the signature. So, when he is requested for an autograph, he just signs "Babe Ruth" thinking that is his own signature. It could explain why it is almost impossible to find a "Joe Jackson" autograph and why there are so many "Babe Ruth" autos out there.
