Hey Bill, years ago I was faced with the same decision that you are making. I only collect T206 and related sets, but I wanted a Babe Ruth card. Based on advice that I got from Art Martineau, I picked this one. I really like it because it shows Babe in a pitching pose, and also I couldn't afford those cards from 1915 and 1916.
But if you want a hitting pose, I think you can't go wrong with a 1933 Goudey. Good luck.
