1933 Goudey Ruth #144 or 1921 Exhibit Ruth?

[pawpawdiv9]

I was exploring the ideal of going Ruth, but tried to go under radar on the 1925 W504 toy novelty Yankess card (Gehrig RC) with Ruth
Nevertheless, i just placed a bid and went to sleep and got nabbed in extended bidding.
Didnt know this item existed. Maybe someone here got it.
I viewed the whole Goldin prices the other day, as mentioned the Jordan card may be experiencing a adjustment to the 85 Star card grading opening back up, thus making it the RC to have.
Hate to hear what prices are at the Nationals.

must be Pete--- i went to sleep at 6pm EST and it was at 1500 or so (me as high bid)
things got crazy near the 10 pm close time. Can't believe it went for 5K+ WOW! and it was just the top card portion, not the whole thing.
But i been told if i see something unique like that to bid on it! Most likely i wont see another in a long time.
As far the Exhibits cards, i never really bit the bullet on these things. I guess its more a post card thing and oversized. I missed the boat on the Gehrig of course. I had 707sportscards on Ebay and had offer near the 4k price he had on Ebay. Still look back on it.
Dont get me wrong guys, i do like the images of Ruth as well. More in favor of the batting pose. And always loved the red Goudey too!

Every once in a while an item will slip through the cracks for me. The 1925 Novelty Yankees team yesterday sure slipped through. I somehow missed it. Anyway, congrats to whoever won it.

Sorry that was me on both the 1928 Ruth and the 1925 Ruth.

I paid up to get what I wanted/needed for my collection. I thought the prices were a bit strong but it is Ruth But it is what the market wanted because I know several other bidders were bidding with me until I was the lucky one

I liked the look, I liked the rarity, it helps my goal of trying to get 1 card from each year Ruth played(working on the 20's now), and I like the poses.

Nice pick ups Jeff! Now I see the full picture - you get 3 Ruth’s, I get a rare Wagner, and Goldin/Consignor are happy. I like our deal even better now. Well done!

Congrats Jeff, I was in strong on the e121 ball in hand from Goldin, hated to lose it but I unfortunately came in second on that one. Beautiful cards!

Nice pickups, Jeff. I also want to do a Ruth run from each of his playing days years, but the Boston days are holding me back.
