Default RUTH "ROOKIE" IN MASTRO AUCTION

Posted By: leon

Whomever submitted the Ruth "rookie" with a blank back got to tell the grader what year it was from. Big surprise why you see so many 1915 blank back Ruths and no 1916's..... Like Frank said, and most likely with Andy B's involvement, both series are re-classified as 1916 now. If I am not mistaking (I'm not at home with the big SCD) the new SCD has the E135's as 1917. Squashes notions of that being the Babe's rookie.....which is a relevant term anyway....it's all so nice and confusing.....nice cabinet too Jay....seems it could have quite the pedigree too.....later
