I was just looking at the upcoming Mile-High Auction, and have a question about Lot #188. Here's a picture of it:

Is it just me, or is the color of the card completely wrong? Also, according to other examples I've looked at, including my own, Babe's right hand should extend beyond the yellow border (kinda like the E90-1 Upp).

Did someone goof up big-time on this one, is it a fake holder/fake card, or am I just nuts?

Steve, obviously the color is off but it's been my experience with Mile High that their scans sometimes really leave a lot to be desired. The colors are often very washed out. You give Joe D a shot with that catalog and that yellow Ruth would be as bright as the sun.

Brian describes it as mustard yellow.

Maybe folks who can't tell brown from black (or orange from red) won't be able to distinguish shades of yellow either. :)

Is the Star Player Candy Ruth from the REA find of unopened cards a few years back?

The white space between the red bottom area and the uniform/yellow area looks larger than on others I have seen, as well. Usually, I think, it is just a very thin white line on the right side and no space at all on the left side. On the other hand, it has the look of a real card.

Looks like a reprint to me.
