Never wrong, just early. That applies in spades to cards. I don't think I have ever gone wrong buying a Ruth card at the then-market price, because I tend to hang onto cards for a long time. Over the long term they are sound purchases because Ruth and several others are must-have players. I mean, how do you put together any kind of credible collection without Babe Ruth, Walter Johnson, Cy Young, Willie Mays, Ty Cobb, Hank Aaron, Honus Wagner, Stan Musial, Ted Williams, Lou Gehrig or Mickey Mantle. They are at the core of the game. It bugged the hell out of me that I did not have a career-issued Wagner card for a long time, until I finally bought one:
