Neal, that is a beautiful and severely underrated Ruth. Lower grades of that card usually don't convey the beauty of the 32 Caramel set. This one maintained great color and registration. Congrats.

When the Federal League disbanded after the 1915 season, Charles Weeghman, who had been the owner of the Whales, purchased the Cubs and merged the rosters of the two teams. Apparently, the Cubs wore Whale uniforms during spring training, and during the season their uniforms had a new logo that was essentially the 1915 Whales' logo with a bear in place of the whale.

This is interesting. I always thought that the Cubs purchased the ballpark (now called Wrigley Field) from the owner of the Whales. But it turns out that the owner of the Whales purchased the Cubs instead.
