Goudey Ruths remind me of 52 Mantles. Very plentiful and the demand is much greater. One of my faves....and my avatar...

With so many on the market it may be a good time to pick one up, can never go wrong with Ruth and its such an iconic card at a relatively affordable level.

Would you refuse to buy one from a seller that lists it as a "rookie card" on principle?

Went after the set of them a few years back, think the Red is my favorite but they are all pretty sweet Base Ball Cards.

Nice set. The red is also my favorite as well. Also last check on the PSA pop report the red is nearly the same as the yellow but probably a bit off due to resubs and crossovers. It just calls out the fact that the yellow isn’t substantially lower than the others or the red. For the longest time collectors assumed the yellow was the rarest one, likely still is but the gap has significantly lowered.

I never thought of a $5,000+ card as affordable...until these last two years. I would really like a #181 but will have to sell some other stuff to get into it.

With limited funds I debated picking up a second lower grade Goudey yesterday. I was convinced by a good friend to do e253 Ruth instead. Hopefully not a bad call!

I think of the few things I have put on the BST, it took the longest to sell a PSA 1 #181. I had to knock it down a couple times to a thousand I think.

Boy, times sure have have changed.

I think these cards are great Ruth cards.
Funny that some consider if his rookie cards
But these are iconic and always seen in demand.

The eye appeal on these cards are really sharp

At some point in the future I will take the plunge and get 1.

Probably the Red one

Same. Green here. If I end up with red and you, green, lets make a deal.

Amazing Ruth. Regarding the goudey Ruth to 52T Mantle comparison, I checked pops today on the 149 goudey Ruth vs 52T mantle. The goudey 149 is over 700 lower, which in relation to the mantle it makes the goudey Ruth seem cheap.
