I emailed Heritage and pointed them to this thread.

Sometimes a smaller company can be better, when you only have two cataloguers and they pretty much know their stuff! From our Spring Pre War auction:


Lot # 285: 1935 Muratti CIgarette Olympischen Spielen #38 Poynton/"Babe Ruth" PSA 5 EX


It is pretty common knowledge that the gentleman featured in the card is NOT Ruth, but rather Poynton's coach . Frankly it doesn't look very much like Ruth. Anyway the card still enjoys notoriety and can still be found in incorrect slabs like this one. This is a heckuva PSA 5 with nice centering and only minor to light corner wear and light toning.
