Babe Ruth

I'm wondering if anybody can steer me in the right direction to acquire an autographed Babe Ruth cut at a fair price. I know it's going to be expensive, but I would like to know at least where to start researching so I can save my money and get it from somebody who is reputable. There's no way I can afford an autographed baseball, but I would love to at least have a cut with his autograph on it at some point. Thanks !

I have them on my website at university archives but try Memory Lane who also advertises here, and mention the site.

Richard Simon is also a very reliable source for vintage autographs

I tried those sites, but no luck. John Reznikoff, I saw one on your site but it was signed in pencil and I would rather have ink. Please let me know if you get any in. I also found more cuts but after reading another thread on forensic authenitcation, I'm thinking they're fakes. I'm going to post a few links to see what you guys think.

Your best bet is to contact the reputable dealers mentioned in this thread and be patient. Eventually one of them will come through for you and you will end up with an item you can enjoy and have no doubts. It is almost never a good idea to rush into a purchase like this -- especially with an unknown seller.

The stuff on the aasportscollectobles site speaks for itself.
