1928 R315 Babe Ruth “Yellow Tint” with Scarce “FIELDER, YANKEES A.L.” Line at Bottom .. SGC 60 EX 5 - Only 3 Yellow Tint Examples Listed on the Combined SGC & PSA records (all SGC)

RARE YELLOW TINT BABE!!! One of the Bambino's most desirable 1920s cardboard heirlooms is the eclectic 1928 R315 subject, presented here in an outstanding SGC 5 EX holder. Of utmost significance, this grand offering not only includes the scarce variation "FIELDER, YANKEES A.L." caption across the lower border, it also reflects the near-impossible to find Yellow Tint surface, with SGC's prestigious census report listing only three Yellow Tint copies. This card is the best ever graded - POP 1, PSA's Pop Chart does not list a single Yellow Tint specimen, and while a sparse ungraded few may be tucked away in private collections, I can only speak for the examples that have been definitely listed on professional grading services' population reports. While the adjective "outstanding" rarely applies to a EX card, the extremely low count of documented R315 Yellow Tint Ruths speaks for itself, truly meriting its worldly complements via an undisputed paucity level, placing it as a scarcer card than his illustrious and likewise rare 1914 Baltimore News and 1921 Frederick Foto issues.

It was only some 16 months ago that a mid-grade "black and white" example revealing the same Line at Bottom fetched over five figures, substantiating the ultra-desirability for any mid-grade Ruth, and I cannot even begin to estimate the potential price tag for this aesthetically pleasing Yellow Tint rarity.

No surface flaws are evident on either side, and other than negligible areas of diminutive toning,. The final exclamation point is the atypical "FIELDER, YANKEES A.L." caption that joins forces with the overwhelmingly scarce yellow tint surface to create a super rare dynamic duo.
