Early Ruth Cards
I think I would agree with pre-1925 post. When I first started this thread, I guess I was amazed that more people hadn't been willing to put their Ruth cards up in some of the major Spring auctions in an effort to cash in. It seems to me like the Babe Ruth "craze" has taken a firm hold on the cardboard side of the hobby and people are in "holding" mode. I enjoy seeing any Ruth cards, so I'd encourage people to show their Ruth cards regardless of the year.....for me, as a Red Sox fan, I enjoy seeing his early stuff the most.
I picked up one of the 1915 real photo Red Sox team postcards this year...one of I believe six or so that have been graded. It cost me a lot, but hey, this is the year to celebrate a man who is better known worldwide than some political leaders.
