This really seems to like a huge screw up by the TPG companies. The value of that card is just about zero without Babe Ruth. Wonder how the hobby ever came to accept that it was Ruth in the image?
Aside from the fact that lots of people now have a card that is nearly worthless (if they are being honest when they try to sell it), this eliminates one of the few Ruth pre World War II cards that could still be had for under $500. Last edited by Bored5000; 03-05-2018 at 10:18 PM.

As they say, a prosopagnosiac and his money are soon parted.

I am pretty sure I have a good full on photo of Ernst Brandsten. I just pulled out a photo him and two of his Olympic diving athletes to scan to my website. I will post it when I get home this evening.
Brandsten competed in diving at the 1912 Olympics but did not medal. His wife Greta Johansson also competed in diving in 1912 winning a gold medal. They trained divers at Stanford for 33 years. Both were inducted into the International Swimming Hall of Fame in Florida. At one point I owned a large group of Greta's personal HOF programs signed by many HOFer Olympians.

I don't normally look at a lot of threads in this section, but the title piqued my curiosity. I am glad I did. I knew immediately it was not Babe Ruth. I guess the expression 'You tell a lie enough times and people will believe it' holds true here. For everyone's edification here is a photo of Ernst (NOT Ernest) Brandsten with two of his star divers at Stanford circa 1926-27. Dave Fall on the left won a silver medal in diving in 1924. He became an attorney practicing maritime law in California. Just before his death in 1964 he was appointed a district court judge in California. Pete Desjardins on the right won a silver medal in diving in 1924 and gold medals in both diving events in 1928. I will also post this in the other thread.
