Great set! Here's my best 2:

This is actually the 3rd different Ruth I've owned from the set, I've had an Auth and a Grade 1 that weren't nearly as nice as this one! It's an awfully tough card to find in any type of halfway decent shape!!

I noticed that as well when I was looking at all the vcp images of this card that have sold in the past. Most are not very nice and almost all are badly off centered or have other issues. That being said the image is vintage Ruth at his finest and not seen on a lot of other cards like the throwing pose, making it that much more special and helps make up for the condition issues.

Great duo. Someday I'll add a Hornsby. One of my favorite Hornsby poses.

This is one of my favorite cards. I love the pose and it is special because it once belonged to my good friend John Esch.

OMG that's a nice E220 Ruth. Nearly impossible to find like that

About 10 years ago I got an email from a garbage man who found a bunch of E121s in a notebook that someone threw out in the trash. I guess he got my email from the OBC site. I bought the cards from him and they all soaked off easy peasy. Turns out some where E220's which I then started.

Back upside down as you hold the card horizontally on the front.
