If you are deadset on the scenario you outlined, I would buy the nicest 33 goudey you can find in that range. It seems generally the most popular Ruth and you can either sell it to Ruth collectors of Goudey set builders. Some of his other cards don't have the set builder base to appeal to.
One thing to consider is there is virtually always a cost to selling. If you are considering buying for investment, you are looking at 25% going to selling costs, so you have to realize that much growth before you "start making money." There's a couple ways to get around that...finding a buy that is better than expected or a seller who will pay work with a thinner margin.
