Ruth M101-5?

This is pretty clearly a fake given the artificial wear. None of the other discussions negate that. I wouldn’t waste money on this one.

LOL, nope... I wish!

Just figured since Larry was mentioning he had a Corvette, it was relevant...

Ooh ooh! If we're playing the keeping up with the Jones' game then I'm posting my farm truck. I also have a hunting cabin. I just told my son that when I die to sell them for a free semester at the community college.

Back to the Ruth card - the one posted above is not genuine, and no such cards that display the characteristics of the one above (wide border, etc) were ever genuine.

Nice truck! I drive an F150.

I'll put either of these up against any Porsche in a good ole game of chicken any time!

1985. I have thought about selling to buy cards, but not yet.

I have never seen a real M101-5/4 with a large, inside white border, such as is on the Ruth. I have seen fakes and reprints with smaller borders too, as others might have mentioned.
