Great Ruths Gary. I never knew some of the w516s seem to depict Ruth as a righty, while others correctly show him as a lefty. Are these different poses/different parts of his wind up? Or are they just reversed images?

Honestly, I never gave these cards any real thought, but looking at them all lined up like that, it’s cool that they are one of the few images out there of Ruth as a pitcher.

Great cards as always Gary!!!! Welcome to the W516 club!!

Ryan, these are just reversed images, as the copyright text is backwards on the cards where Ruth is throwing right-handed.

Thanks, everyone, for the comments!

Jim, I love your W516 run also. I think I sold you a couple of those cards! Also, the W516-2-3 is always the toughest one, and you have a very nice copy.

Yep, as Jim said, in a previous post, they are just reversed images.
