1933 Sanella BABE RUTH
Posted By: <b>Ben</b><p>Fairly common cards printed in Germany (obviously) on very thin card stock. I believe they were part of an album which promoted Sanella margerine. The Ruth can usually be had on ebay in the $50-100 range.

Posted By: <b>Frank Evanov</b><p>112 card set inserted in German margarine packs. Babe is the only American BB Player included. There are 4 types of cards and type 2 is the most common [PSA has graded 210 of the Babe]. Fairly easy to find. I bought a PSA 8 Type 2 Ruth on EBAY for $150 in Sept. 2005.<br><br>Frank

Posted By: <b>Kyle</b><p>Nearly 2.5 years ago I sold a Type 2 Graded a BGS/BVG 8 for $560. The card had some solid sub grades:<br /><br />Centering, 10<br />Corners, 7.5<br />Edges, 9.0<br />Surface, 8.5<br /><br />High bidder thought it should have been an 8.5. <br /><br />PSA 8s commonly sell for $300, though that one for $150 would be a steal!<br />-Kyle-

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>It's a nice looking card in person, better than the strip cards. If there was a best Pre-War cards for collectors on a budget, I might nominate this one.

Posted By: <b>James Feagin</b><p>I agree with you on some of the strip cards. However, there are some Ruth strips that are gorgeous. I almost picked up a Sanella, but European cards depicting Ruth look almost generic to me. Kind of like the "collector's issues" of their day. Perhaps it's a language barrier issue, but European cards of both sports and non-sports subjects just don't seem to go anywhere over here.

Posted By: <b>davidcycleback</b><p>I had been reading aboug German history when I won a Senella Ruth, so I found a 1933 German issue of Ruth interesting.

Posted By: <b>fkw</b><p>The one to find is the Astra Margarine back. Same set but back has "Astra" instead of "Sanella". They are extremely rare, Ive only seen 2-3 ever, compared to hundreds of Sanella's.

I did get lucky and picked a Jakob Brindel (Wrestling) Astra card. Got to be more out there.
