1921 exhibit Ruth AUTO!

[pokerplyr80]

I was actually talking about this card with another member the other day. Way out of my league, but the card and signature look great. AJ is right he makes a great argument for his ask in the description. One of those cards you don't mind keeping but would sell if someone paid a high enough price. One of a kind.

That sales strategy sounds like mine with this card. Sure it's for sale (sort of), and if you buy it I will be very happy. And if you have to ask what the price is, you can't afford it. And personally I would rather have this 1921 Exhibit in the first post, with Ruth's gem mint signature, than a '52 mick in a 7.5 holder, but that is must me.

That Cy Young is one of the nicest cards I have ever seen, from any set. What a great portrait and great color - cards like that are why I collect t-cards. Thanks for sharing Leon.

These cards are all awesome. I continue to wish I owned this one:

Leon, if there is one card, outside of Honus, that is everything I love about pre-War collecting, it is your E99-1 Cy; its color clarity, sharpness, the uniform with Gothic Boston lettering and, of course, the man and his record. I know I can't afford it and that's ok. Forget the Jackson and the Mitchell, this is the card that marks the set. Go Sox!

Thanks John (It's an E90-1, typo ). It is 1 of 2 cards in my current collection that would be difficult to let go...this one really can't be replaced (or at least not that I have seen), the other can. And for the record, had HA not been auctioning my collection I probably couldn't have afforded it either. It was a huge and happy coincidence. I personally, always thought it was the best card in the set and years before I won it I had it put on one of the Net54baseball T shirts. This card was meant to be....

back to subject, not takers at 275k OBO yet...

As e90-1 Young-Boston's go, that is a very, very nice one. The one I had previously was similar.
