I got this many years ago from the original owner. He got it as a kid.
This is an underappreciated/undervalued issue.

Everyone knows I am a totally raw guy. I just want to collect cards. I have cracked every graded card I have ever had. But I am seriously considering having my 1933 Goudey Ruth and Gehrig cards graded. Perhaps a few of the others as well. At this point, it would be foolish not to.

Nice #144 Leon. Tough to find them with eye appeal like yours.

1929 Kashin Ruth still looks like a reasonable buy.

I honestly say only grade them if you plan on selling them.

If your cards end up in someone else’s hands to sell someday, it’s easier to value a graded card so people can look it up and get a solid idea on what it’s worth. My fear has always been some crook, friend of a friend kind of deal, shows up at my front door and tries to convince the wife that my Ruth card is only worth a few hundred. “And that’s actually being generous”.

I would for insurance purposes so that just incase something happens you get reimbursed for the graded value instead of get beat over raw values.

For the 1933 Goudey Ruth cards, I would have any of the four. It just happened to be that the seller had the batting pose #144 all those years ago. And I just happened to have the money at the time. If he had any one of the other three, and not the one I have, I am certain I would have bought it. These are my personal favorite Babe Ruth cards of them all. Not because I have one, or that they are worth a small fortune. I just like them.
