Another Babe Ruth Ball - Improves With Age

Found this interesting.

The seller listed this ball on eBay and I was watching it because it was such a bad forgery. Also, two different balls were being shown, even though it was stated to be the same ball.

The seller subsequently stopped that auction after a few days and relisted it again. As you can now see, the Ruth ball has dramatically changed and improved from it's earlier version.

I just love the magic of copy and paste.

Well, Well, Well.

I found the Ruth ball the seller copied and pasted in this auction.

Lousy thief.

It is Lot No. 890 in the current Lelands auction.

Here is the link:

Great detective work Sammy!

Good news.

The auction has been canceled by eBay with less then an hour to go.

That's make two fake Babe Ruth auctions in the past two weeks that we were able to get stopped, and stopped someone from getting ripped off.

Keep up the good work guys!
