I think that's signed by the guy who signed this one, which I don't believe is the Babe:

JSA certed it.

but it’s on a letter not penned in his hands, which the LOA states. Just don’t know why he would sign it and not pen the letter?

That occasionally happens, but it’s important to post the entire item not just the signature. You don’t have to post the COA or mention that it certified by somebody else. But posting the entire item is really important. Front and back if you have it.

If this were all in Ruth’s hand, you’d be looking at a very pricey piece.

Also noticed this one today. Not certed, age of ink looks good. But a few things I don’t like in the signature..

no, this was not authenticated. I didn't think it looked right and Beckett confirmed that.

JSA got it right. The handwriting in the body of the letter is definitely not even close to Ruth's. It could be dictated by Ruth, or prepped for him beforehand.
