Although I'm a bit biased because I own one, I have to agree that this is a fantastic Ruth card and is somewhat underrated compared to the 4 from the Goudey baseball set. Similar to the brown cap on the #181, I wonder if the Sport Kings Ruth suffers a bit in popularity from having no Yankees cap at all.
Many here already know this, but the SK Ruth features a cropped photo of him shaking hands with the 29th President of the United States, Warren G. Harding (the game was in 1923, 10 years before the Sport Kings set was issued)
