Default Babe Ruth exhibit need help

Posted By: fkw

There are 2 Ruths in that set, the "Batting" card like yours and the "Pose" version (below).



PS that scrapbook residue will come off easily in less than 5 minutes. DO NOT completely soak the exhibit card. Use a wet tissue (re-wetting as needed) and dab only the scrapbook paper (just try to get the paper wet and not so much the card). Once the paper is wet use the edge of tweasers or even a pin to chip away at the paper, it should come off easily and sometime all in one large piece. I just did it to a 1926-29 Hornsby exhibit card today.

Here are some more from this set (my favorite Exhibit set). They come with or without background (see Sisler) and a couple even have updated name plates (see Frisch)
