Finally got this in hand yesterday. An M110 had been on my wantlist for the past several years. Always expected that I would settle for a Chance or Chase, but couldn't pass this one up despite the flaws.

Those "flaws" actually add to the piece Rich, congrats on the pickup after so many years.

So this happened. I wasn't planning it until I saw it, and didn't dream that I could grab an early 20's Ruth card in this market, especially an E220, a personal favorite (and a card that seems very underrated to me). It grabbed my attention not only because it was an E220, but this particular card's look strongly appealed to my admittedly irrational love of miscuts (not that this card is one in E220 terms). I think that the A holder and likely trimming helped keep it (barely) in my $ range for sure, as well as the extreme oc-ness, which to me was part of the appeal. There was also a higher grade Ruth E220 in the same auction (!?!) that surely drew off some interest. I LOVE this card, I still can't believe that it's mine, and I happily accept the shambles that it's made of my card budget and collecting goals for the year.
