I didnt really get the whole story but it was never stated that he got it in person just that he was a collector i guess and obtained many pieces of memorabilia and other stuff with his connections, which by the looks of it are all probably fake and she came up with one great story.....
thanks for the help ill let him know.fkw

Bill Harris was 16 years old and living in Canada when Babe Ruth passed away, not to mention he only pitched in 2 MLB games/8 innings... and this was nearly 10 years after Ruth passed.
Sounds like he may have forged it as a kid, as it looks like a kids work at best
bad autograph, not even close...
PS. Even many of the $25K+ PSA/DNA sigs are counterfeit
good read if you think otherwise

That is not Ruth's signature. It's so bold and single signed if it was real it'd be worth a ton of money, but it isn't.

I wasnt thinking he got it in person either, I was basically kidding.
the "kid doing it opinion" is prob true, no one would cross an "h", or if you want to call it a "t" then its "Rutn" lol
Most players who have the opportunity to get an autograph of a former famous player (ie Ruth) actually get the chance to meet the older player because he is a (current) player (ie clubhouse visit, spring training visit, throwing out 1st pitch, coach, etc.).
That couldnt be the case with Harris and Ruth, they are off by 10 years..... that was the point I was making.
I really dont think Harris had that ball in his collection, but you never know... I think its all a made up story to try to con someone into buying a bad Ruth sig. Like others said that ball is not even from the Era that Ruth lived, but the sig fails so no need to go to the next step (ball age).
you did good by showing it here....
