Authenticity is Everything
Babe Ruth Autographed Baseball Signed Christmas Card COA Drew Max AAU Pawn Stars "You Gotta Be Kidding Me, Drew!!!"
Below are two Babe Ruth items authenticated by Drew Max. Drew Max (AAU/Authentic Autographs Unlimited).
Mr. Max appears frequently on the Pawn Stars reality show. I have written a few blogs on some of the autographs that Mr. Max has stated are authentic.
Mr. Max gives himself the title of FDE (Forensic Document Examiner).
It is unbelievable that someone who calls himself a Forensic Document Examiner would authenticate the below Babe Ruth autographs.
Mr. Max, what forensic examinations did you perform to authenticate the below Babe Ruth signatures? Mr. Max, what Babe Ruth exemplars did you use to authenticate the below Babe Ruth autographs?
Here's the first Babe Ruth. It is listed by Ebay seller nick.ostgren. The aforementioned Ebay seller is asking $20,000 or Best Offer. Seriously? For this garbage?
If the Ebay seller were to submit this to PSA or JSA, it would be rejected in a heartbeat. This is the type of Babe Ruth forgery that we see on the Coach's Corner auction site in numbers every month.
Here are two Babe Ruth forgeries listed on the Coach's Corner auction site right now. Notice the similarities between these two and the one posted below.
Here are the Drew Max certed Babe Ruth forgeries. What is most ridiculously obvious is the lack of aging of the ink. Did you forensically examine the ink, Mr. Max?
Click on the photos to get a closer view.

Immediately below is a forged Mickey Mantle photo with a worthless COA from A.A.U. and Drew Max.
Our next Babe Ruth item authenticated by Drew Max is a Babe Ruth signature on a Christmas card.
Unfortunately, this sold for $1500.00. This is one of the most horrific Babe Ruth forgeries you will ever see. This was sold by Ebay seller runninwolf24.
Whoever signed that Babe Ruth, must have taken about thirty-minutes to finish it. This is so slowly drawn, it is ridiculous.

You gotta be kidding me, Drew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

#DB - Please educate yourself before commenting. That buyer bought the pennies, searched through them, took out the ones she wanted and complained to eBay to get her money back. That buyer defrauded eBay and got away with it. When looking at my account did you see the over 300 positive feedback comments (guess you missed those huh)? That was the only negative one due to a bad person who was out to get over on someone. Only negative experience I have ever had with anyone...and nothing I could have done would have prevented that negative feedback. She was going to give me negative feedback no matter what and was extremely volatile. Not a fun experience at all.
Look...I don't have the time/energy or patience to try to walk you through life. Have fun on the internet doing what you do.
Just read thngs more carefully, think before you speak and I also wish you well in your life's dealings.
-I want to again thank all of those who were helpful and good luck in everything you do
I will finish this blog with the confirmation of my buyer's refund. Thanks again.
-Mike

Can Christopher help out us newbies and tell us what he sees wrong with the Babe Ruth autographs? How do you tell the card signature is slow?

It's all about "training" your eyes and studying autographs, Ben. It doesn't happen overnight, Ben. I learn something new about a particular autograph every day.

Is there a particular letter in Babe Ruth that looks way off? I've seen experts say that a signature is slow, but have no idea how they can tell. I'm just trying to learn so I can collect as intelligently as possible.
