Need help identifying this Babe Ruth Card
 
2 Attachment(s)
Hey everyone,

I can't find any information about this Babe Ruth card. Does anyone know the year and make of this card? The back is blank. Thank you!

Lol ran a quick image search...found the exact card. Now I know why you were asking haha but I don't know what it is either.

Shutting up now...

Appears to be a more modern something not sure I would call it a card?

Cut from some kind of packaging/advertising piece maybe. I am sure I have seen it someplace.

This is a trimmed and glued to cardboard 1991 Sports Card News card. Doctored to look vintage.

What website is that? Besides the ridiculous estimate for a bogus card, they really butchered the spelling of "jewelry."

Lol. Here you go. liveauctioneers.com wow $200 opening bid or whatever. Pretty sure that's not just a similar item, it's the exact item. https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...a710d3462d.jpg

You gotta like the blurry Babe getting up from a nap photo that is also offered.

The typeface used on "BABE RUTH" was available from the late 1950's - on. Good think fakers rarely know their typography history!
