I m borrowing my friends camera tonight to take and post better pictures. These ones i had to take with my phone, so quality is poor for the time being. I have 3 separate autographed balls with LOA or COA im selling together. One is a single autographed Babe Ruth with LOA by PSA/DNA. Certification E50822 According to the Certification Database, this item is defined as follows: Athlete/Celebrity: RUTH, BABE Item: BASEBALL Manufacturer: Reach Authentication Date: 09/26/2007 Location: PSADNA (the ball in is good condition with PSA LOA, PSA clear case, hologram to prove authenticity) The second is: The certification number is:500541 which is described in there database as: Item: BASEBALL Primary Signer: Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig Authentication Date: 07/27/2000 Result/Grade: Authentic Notes: (Spalding)LG-pers (the ball in is good condition with no defects and has PSA LOA, PSA clear case, hologram to prove authenticity) IT descripition is :The baseball is inscribed by Babe Ruth “I’ll sock you in the nose” and by Lou Gehrig “To my friend Kay From H.L. Gehrig The kid known as Lou”. There writing is fully legible, and they used a black steel-tip fountain pen, signatures of Babe Ruth (sweet spot) and Lou Gehrig (southPanel) on the red and black stitched baseball The Third doesn't not have a PSA certification, instead it has a COA from ClassicSportsOriginals: The Ball is a reach with red and black stitching with "To Tom- With Kindest Personal Regards Lou Gehrig" Email me with questions in regards to this item, I will post better pictures of actual balls later tonight

The funny thing about the Ruth ball is the stitches are going the opposite way on the ball as they are in the LOA photo. What a genius.

Kinda makes you hope the guy steps off a curb in front of a speeding bus, huh?

Joel, those faked balls were the kind you could see coming from across the room.......bad. The paperwork was color copied, and the balls on the paperwork weren't even close to the ones he forged in an attempt to pass them off as the same balls.

He was no doubt just looking for a fish to pay, would have taken the money and run, and never even shipped anything. The paypal account set up for this task would have been shut down, and there would have been no recourse because paypal would have been chasing a ghost.
