I don't see any documentation from the estate in the auction and from some of his interviews with sports writers it's hard to believe that Ruth gifted the bat to koenig or that it came from his estate.

It reminds me why I stay within the safe confines of my card world, and my pick of the Gehrig card has gotten even stronger. Brian Last edited by brianp-beme; 09-09-2024 at 11:41 PM. |

As a decades-long Exhibit collector and memorabilia non-collector and a Yankees fan too, my head says take the bat but my heart says take the card. So I will take the card. Now if we’re talking Ruth rookie versus Gehrig rookie then I go with the big fella.

I am a card guy....but probably the bat. It's not like I have 6 figures to spend anyway, unless I sold some stuff.

I've never bought a bat outside of a sporting goods store, but for that one I'll choose the bat.
