With all the spectacular and interesting signatures featured in this auction - any auction really - the centerpiece is always the signature of Babe Ruth. Easily the most famous (and most frequently forged) autograph in sports collecting Ruth signatures sell for thousands wherever they appear regardless of the surface the method of signing or even the item that was signed. Nearly 70 years after his passing Babe Ruth's autograph is still the most desirable piece in sports collecting. Presented is a cut signature from Ruth signed in pencil and affixed to a 3x5" card. Authenticated and encapsulated by PSA/DNA the signature remains highly collectible and well-preserved in its holder which also helps to enhance the presentation of the signature. With Ruth single-signed balls and baseball cards reaching into the tens of thousands any signature of the Bambino has significant value. Cut signatures such as this while still worth into the four figures are the only remaining "affordable" Ruth autographs - and still serve as a centerpiece to any collection.
