Default 1933 goudey #181 "babe ruth" ?
I have been wanting to pick up a 33 Ruth for some-time and thought about pulling the trigger on this one (Link below). Something just did not look right to me and I wavered about it being a fake. Can some of you guys share your opinion? I'm sure several of you guys looked at this one?

Thank you,
Shawn

The card in question is a reprint. The image quality is poor (compare to a graded example by PSA or SGC), the corners are artificially rounded, the stains have been recently added, and the inner image is cropped (look at the right and left edges and the buttons on Ruth's cap).

Dammit Pete, I had a $50.00 bet on you - that you would be the first to chime in! (I was trying to prove a point to a fellow collector) You are getting slow in your old age. Maybe I will give you a heads up on my next bet and you & I can split the winnings. Dang...

Much like the 52 Mantles we're always discussing I think this is a card best purchased graded, from a reputable source. For twice the price of that reprint, or less, a reasonable PSA 1 could be bought.

No please, I'll take the Lion's share of the blame - Thank you.
