I guess they could sell it as a set and as singles and then go with whichever brings the most money. They've done that with many high profile sets before.

Default please allow me to ramble

I believe it could generate more if sold as a set; of course, it seems likely the Ruth rookie would be carved out so that the buyer would be getting something less than a complete set anyway.
Hard to say for sure because not all of the key cards are shown, but it really isn't that tough to find mid to high-grade blank backs, meaning grades 5-7 with occasional 8s, so breaking it up doesn't really seem to offer a chance for set fillers or even player collectors to upgrade significantly--here the overall set avg is 5.3. Seems to me that someone wanting to avoid the time and trouble of assembling a set would be interested, but that the break-up value is not great.
