I found this picture at a antique shop in Arizona for $40. The signatures look to be real but I do not know if they are. Nor do I if the picture is of any value or any history of the picture. I just really like the pic and want to keep it. Just wondering if anyone knows anything about the pic or with the scene.
Thanks

Unfortuntely, the picture is most likely a fake. You will notice the two autographs for each player. That's because the original picture was copied two times. Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig originally signed this picture during their barnstorming campaign. Later the original picture got copied and then the two signed that picture again. If it's real which isn't likely, its would be worth 10's of thousands of dollars. If it is an official licensed copy though, it's worth about 15 dollars to the right person. Your best bet is to take the picture out of the frame and look at the age of the paper.
