Babe Ruth $$$

[GasHouseGang]

Babe Ruth was bigger than life during the 1930's. He dominated sports headlines across the country. Because of that he appeared on many items. Some items were produced in the millions, and others in much smaller numbers. I picked up this item and figure it's probably fairly rare, but not very valuable. It has Babe Ruth and Tom Mix together on a card. The rest of the set are supposed to help you work on your eyesight. I'm guessing it came out in the 1930's.

I own one of those too via an eBay purchase.

Jamie, did you just get the Ruth card, or did you get the viewer and all the other cards that come with the viewer?

Just the Ruth/Mix Stereoview card, not all the other view and other cards. They described it as a 1920s item.

It was around $50 Dec 2020.

Last night in Sterling:

1933 Goudey #144 SGC 50 $16,800
1926 Exhibit PSA 2 $6,600
1948 Leaf SGC 50 $5,400
1922 E121-120 w/bird SGC 10 $2,640

As an aside, and maybe it is coincidental, but there were virtually prewar superstar cards in the auction. Cobb had one (a mutilated T205), Mathewson had nothing, Gehrig had nothing, Johnson had one card, Young had two cards, Wagner had none

I guess for me, it's the 48 Leaf. Not even a playing days card of Ruth!

Agreed That Exhibit went for strong dollars.
More than I would have been willing to go but obviously some one was willing to

I'm guilty of helping run up the price on the '26 Exhibit. FOMO is real. LOL!
