fkwThey are fairly rare, most picture players from the PCL. There are 45 different checklisted in the 2006 SCD catalog, with the Ruth pictured on page 1602. Commons book for $300 NRMT, but I would think they would sell for a bit over book especially to a type collector. The Ruth in that condition books for about $6,000-$10,000, dont know if it would bring even $10,000. I dont have that kind of $$ handy, but If I did I would go for something different. 1/4 Million is about 25X too much, if you go by book value.
It is not the rarest card of Ruth known, I have owned a couple rarer (Blue Bird side view, Cuban Ruth, both only ones known). And Im not a big time collector.
