Default Ruth
Thanks for the kind words Ben. I didn't think about people interpreting it that way till after I posted it lol. I was mainly getting at that I love this card so much and that Ruth's are so far out of my league that me wanting another one is gonna get me in trouble haha.

obvious examples of what? a fake/reprint? Well the price is good sign? a '33 goudey #53 ruth is fake if it's for sale at a price of $4.25 or $9.99. One can search for themselves and say to themselves, "If you think it is too good to be true, it probably is!"


I just thought thought that the Original Poster bought a fake solely on the title of the thread. That is all

Awesome pickup! Great first Ruth. My first was originally a W515 that I've parted with, but my first non strip Ruth was the 1921 Exhibits although my first one was in faaarrrr worse shape! I now have a 1921 in a PSA 2.

Yours presents really nice for the grade. You can check off a few key things too, Early career card, one of earliest cards as a Yankee, rare fielding pose instead of batting, great image, etc...!

Ruth collecting can be an expensive addiction, be careful!

The Front presents very well I thought. There is remnants of paper from being attached in a scrapbook on the back is the culprit for the PR 1 grade. And with them already having blank backs I don't care. I'm happy.
