Boy Andy, you change your mind so much that you get me dizzy!

Now you are saying (because you are SELLING ONE) that the 1916 Famous & Barrs is the "true" Ruth rookie...

while not too long ago you were trumpeting the 1914 Baltimore News as the REAL Ruth rookie.

All of this because your "Famous & Barrs" print runs top to bottom or vice-versa?? I have a definite M101-4 card with "Famous & Barrs"... so the ONLY "assumption" that can make your card an M101-5 is that the print runs a certain way?

And I am the one making a stretch?

I think I will just stick with my Ruth rookie, since it is BLANK-backed just like a LOT of the M101-5 cards.
