I know that Ruth is pictured in this pose on several different cards...I'd love to see other examples and variations.

Here's my E210 of the same pose. I find it so interesting that cards at this time were being printed with pictures (in this case) which were at least 8 years old...

A nicer one has been shown. But I love this card! A little rough but its the very tough George Ruth e121 version...

Can't get much tougher than the Holsum Bread issue, can it?

I don't think I've shown this for a while, but here's my beater partial sheet of the E121 salesman sample with Ruth on it. I believe Heritage had an immaculate full copy of this that didn't sell a couple of years ago.

Very cool cards everyone. One of the best cards you can get for the price IMO. An early card of the GOAT pitching? I'm surprised they're not six figures. I'd buy one in a second if I had the money

Man that is a great sheet...besides the Ruth there is Cobb, Speaker, Alexander, Johnson, Hornsby and Sisler, all HOF heavyweights, and Baker, Kelly and Wheat thrown in too.
