If I was buying a "Ruth" and had a $1k budget and was in a hurry:
1929 Churchman Sports

Great image, interesting background text, unique set. Not the most collectible/wanted so upside is likely modest, but would be a nice personal collection piece if you wanted some Babe in your life.

Best of luck...can always wait and save for something that sparks joy. I have a 42 card (graded/one-touch) display case that I have with UV glass in a light limited room. The cards that truly make me smile live in there. My recently-passed friend and I would always discuss purchases on whether they'd be "case worthy" or live in my banker's cardboard box (aka my "shame box"). If they weren't worthy of going in the display case, odds of me buying would go down...also meant I'd need to figure out which card was leaving the case...

Good luck!
