Posted By: <b>Turner Engle</b><p>Is this anything? I picked it up at a show today for $10. It just looked cool to have. Blank backed. Any help is appreciated.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://imageshack.us"><img src="http://img137.imageshack.us/img137/7786/br1dy0.jpg" border="0" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" /></a><br />

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>Your card is the size of a Tex Richard style "Headin' Home" card, but there are reproductions known so I cant say if its authentic or not. If it is the high book is $5K. You next step would be to get it authenticated in some way.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>I am not certain, but beleive the Ruth Headin' Home cards are real photo (photographs not mechanical prints). Real photo cards have no dot pattern under magnification. A fine multi color dot pattern likely would be visible under magnification if it's a modern reprint.
