The biggest question I have about the called shot jersey is how it came to be associated with the called shot. I think it far easier to find things you want to see than it is for clues to make themselves evident. What I mean is, did the original owner of the jersey who reportedly received it from Ruth as a retirement gift ever mention the called shot game? Or did a later owner wonder aloud whether this could be his called shot jersey and that's where the story started?
It certainly seems like the kind of story that would follow an item like this from inception. We see it with items that are bogus all the time. There is some family lore where so and so was with Ruth at this place in this year but the signature is clearly not Ruth's and the story cannot be true either. I would think a true story would be just as ubiquitous for an item with this kind of history.
