Babe Ruth Donruss Jersey question

That's cool, I appreciate the insight!
Mine doesn't have a picture of the exact jersey on the back (although that would be nice)
Just going off the color of the patch though , I'd say the one you shared was probably cut from the same jersey

They may have strayed away from putting the picture of the actual item on the back of the card, but in 2001 they did for sure. Here is my Hank Aaron from 2001 with front and back.

Forgot the photos!

That Hank Aaron is a cool example too!

Here's a little history I was able to dig up on Donruss purchasing two Ruth jerseys:

In Leyland's May 2023 auction, they purchased a 1925 Home jersey for just over $264,000.
Sometime before that, they must have purchased a different Ruth Road jersey also from Leyland's for $300,000, as quoted in this article from ESPN in 2005: https://www.espn.com/espn/sportsbusi...ory?id=2043622

I can't find any other info on that earlier jersey though...... Anyone have more insight on that?
