Posted By: <b>Brad</b><p>Todd,<br /><br />Do you consider the M101-4 1916 Sporting News Ruth a RC? I do! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14><br /><a href="http://members.aol.com/METSBWD/Hofers/ruth.html" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://members.aol.com/METSBWD/Hofers/ruth.html</a>

Posted By: <b>P Spaeth</b><p>I thought someone determined all the variations of this card were really 16 not 15 -- so if that is the case what is his rookie card?

Posted By: <b>Todd Schultz</b><p>The Boston Store cards were issued in 1917, not 1916 as PSA labeled.

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>The Boston Store card is much rarer than the Sporting News RC and I might choose that one if given an option between the two.
