Ruth, Wagner & Cobb
 
Which pre-war sets contain cards of all three: Ruth, Wagner & Cobb?

the m101 sporting news and some variants I presume are the only sets?

Plus the 1917 Collins McCarthy (E135), which would also potentially mean standard biscuit, Boston store, and Weil baking, but fat chance finding all 3 in any of those (let alone 1)

Your issue is that Ruth and Wagner barely overlapped - you can find plenty of Cobb with Wagner and Cobb with Ruth

1917 E135 Collins-McCarthy which also includes Joe Jackson and a rookie named Rogers Hornsby.

Cool wasn’t sure if there was some other obscure set out there.

W514... which I deem a great set from an historical perspective. Few sets have cards for people involved in baseball before 1900, from the first two decadea of World Series times, of BlackSox players, of spitball pitchers, all without a financially backbreaking card that denies completion. Hang on, nevermind... I think Wagner isn't in it.

I believe Honus Wagner was at least rumored to have been in the M101-6 Felix Mendelsohn set but I don’t believe one has ever surfaced/ likely doesn’t exist.

The other 2 are in set!
