Default m101-6 Ruth

Thanks Todd,
I've seen many Ruth Yankees for sale/auction over the last 15 years and one Red Sox so I found it curious that Mile High would claim the Yankee version is 3x scarcer
I would agree with you. I guess they figured that the Yankees version could only have been issued in 1920 and since the set was also issued during 1917-1919, there were 3 years for collectors to land a Ruth Red Sox. Obviously, distribution of each card in the set was not even over the years they were issued.
