Ruth Autograph on Envelope

Hello everyone,

Saw this one Ruth autograph up for sale. Although there are issues with the signature....can someone comment on if the signature looks right?

I will post a picture and hopefully it will be clear enough for observation.

Thanks again to all the contributors.

About five years ago, I purchased the identical Babe Ruth signature from a dealer.  However, mine was on a piece of paper and not an envelope.  Luckily, about a year ago, Terrier, Richard Simon, and PSA/DNA told me that it was not authentic and I was able to return the Babe Ruth autograph to the dealer for a refund.  The dealer was able to get their money back from filing a claim with their insurance company.

Somehow the forgers appear to be able to run copies or use a machine to produce the exact same signature.  Here is a scan of the one that I previously owned.  Judge for yourself:
