Not a fair comparison because part (or most) of the value in the original is that it was produced nearly a century ago, during Ruth’s career. Even a perfect reprint doesn’t capture that.

I appreciate the historical value of pre-war cards and would pay thousands for the ones I desire even without any resale value. They are just amazing to enjoy up close.
