Sometimes you just have to man up if you really want something and it's hard to find. Nice acquisition.

Not sure if Lutz Long was an icon but there are cards of him and Jesse Owens.

Thanks for the feedback, gents (apologies if I've misidentified an intrepid female on Net54). The Schmeling/Ruth is pretty neat, as is the Jesse Owens / Lutz Long. I'm not a Ruth collector per se, as that is an expensive rabbit hole that I wish to dodge for as long as possible!

As a general matter, I think Jesse Owens is highly undervalued relative to his athletic achievements and his historical significance. He met the moment in that 1936 Olympic performance like no one else -- while his treatment on his return to American soil is arguably one of the few, but great, stains on FDR's legacy.

Nice card! I’ve been looking for that for a while. And an amazing grade!!! The closest I got was this:
