Default Iconic Ruth Card

Would you believe this classic Ruth card, graded PSA-3, wound up costing me $10 total about a year and a half ago? I have been on the wrong end of a few high-risk, high reward transactions and once when I got ripped off by an eBay seller, eBay not only refunded me through a PayPal reversal, they also gave me a merchandise credit in the amount of $1000 for anything sold on eBay. This card later came up as a Buy-It-Now listing for the price of exactly $1000 and $10 for insured shipping. So I contacted eBay to verify that the voucher wasn't a scam, and jumped on this Ruth card, applied the voucher, and paid only $10 total (the shipping fee). I am a very happy camper!

I don't consider this my holy grail. My 62 Fleer Jack Kemp is my grail as I spent 7 years looking for a centered example. But here is my pre war holy grail.

I can see why. Not many here can claim their Holy Grail only cost them ten bucks. Cool card!

My holy grail is my T215 Red Cross Purtell. This knocked a nice card off my Jersey City wantlist that I really never thought I would find in my price range.

Thanks,
