W515-1 Babe Ruth PSA 10 on pawn stars

I liked how Rick called it the "ugliest baseball card I have ever seen" or something very close to that quote.

Yes, it was hilarious. I know playing era Ruth cards are on fire, but tripling or quadrupling in value over what the card sold for just two years ago seems like a stretch to me.

I recorded it! I wrote about it in someones BST thread (selling one of those)
In fact, if you saw the 6:30 est show, there was a RUTH rookie team card they showed that was PSA/DNA, but not slabbed. And RIck questioned why it was not slabbed. LOL!
The customer replied, so he may latter if he wanted to frame it.

Oh ya wasnt that the ruth team photo that had the PSA LOA with it. I think it was valued at like 10k. I Dont think they made a deal on it. He even called in a expert to make sure it was legit..lol..Rick and steve are bff's so i couldnt believe he still needed more proof

I was thinking that if Rick thought the Babe Ruth strip card from the W515-1 set was the ugliest card he ever saw, he should check out giant forehead Ty Cobb from the same set.

Do you guys think Rick would purchase any of the items Drew Max has authenticated? If I took a Gehrig with a Max LOA to the store, think they would buy it? Could be a lucrative business for an enterprising person.

I bet he would. The majority of the autograph stores in vegas have his authentication. I went into one called field of dreams and even mentioned to the guy about drew's reputation but the guy just shrugged it off and said they stand behind the authentication
