Thanks, guys. I'm still having to go look at it all the time to make sure it is really here. I can't believe I finally got one.

Picked up this Japanese menko card featuring Ruth and Gehrig. The photo is from a 1929 barnstorming tour so I'm guessing the card is from close to the same time. I don't know how many other cards feature both Ruth and Gehrig together so I had to have it:

![]() Been outbid on 3 of these over the past couple months so I wasn't letting this one get away... ![]() Been holding out for a lower grade PSA copy, but they never seem to show up on eBay (now they probably will) so I figured I'd snag this while it was 10% off, less than $35dlvd. |

Nice find! The text on the back says "...he hit 60 home runs the year before last..." so that would definitely date the card to 1929.

packs the image on your Cuban card is spectacular, thanks for sharing. |

Thanks, Derek! Yep, Heritage incorrectly described the item as a W516-2 sheet, which is funny because they also auctioned the other one as part of Leon's auction in 2015 with the correct set name.

Thanks for the info! I figured it was too esoteric to pass up. It's hard to find a Ruth or Gehrig card that you haven't seen before.

I will have to dig it out tomorrow but my T210 Miller is miscut nearly identical to yours.
