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.

Gary - I saw that one but didn't really know what it was. If I recall, the item description said W516-2 or something to that effect.

Very neat strip card sheet! Congrats on the pick-up!

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.
