Glad to try and figure this out, I been thinking hard on this and I just cant see anything else being the case, even more so since the old Catalog pretty much says 70 cards were reused (I found that number to be 71 cards). After talking to a few other exhibit collectors here is a break down list of the 1926 set I put together and they all should have a blue tint (much different than the 1928 blue tint thou). I also found it interesting that nearly all the list of 71 cards have some of the higher pops fro the set and I have found them much easier to find than the 17 that changed removed the box-
39 New Players in 1926 that are not in 1925 set John M. Bentley George Bischoff J. Fred Blake Ted Blankenship Lucerne A. Blue Geo. H. Burns John Butler Patrick T. Collins Earl B. Combs James E. Cooney Edward S. Farrell Bernard Friberg Joseph Galloway Charles Gehringer Fred Haney Wm. Hargrave Joseph Hauser C. E. Heathcote Ramon Herrera Andrew A. High Clarence Huber Wm. Hunnefield Anthony Lazzeri Frederick Lindstrom John Makan Hugh A. McQuillan Douglas McWeeny Oscar Melillo Joseph W. Munson Emil Musel Bernie F. Neis Robert O'Farrell James J. Ring Fred Spurgeon Edward Taylor J. Taylor John Warner Fred Wingfield Russell Wrightstone 18 players from both sets but the 1926 version has no box David Bancroft Lawrence Benton Maurice Burrus Wilson Fewster Frank Frisch Jacques F. Furnier Joseph Genewich Burleigh A. Grimes George Harper Walter Henline Walter Marranville George O'Neil Walter C. Pipp Emory Rigney John Sand Frank Snyder William Terry Wm. Wambsganns Zach Wheat 70 Cards that are the same as the 1925 cards except they have a blue tint (these are the reruns)- Sparky Adams John Bassler Lester Bell Carson Bigbee Max Bishop Raymond Blates Oswald Bluege James Bottomly Raymond Bressler Max Carey Tyrus Cobb Eddie Collins Stanley Coveleski Hugh M. Critz Hazen Cuyler George Dauss Peter Donohue Charles Dressen James J. Dykes Bib Falk Ira Flagstead Howard Freigau Henry L. Gehrig Walter Gerber Leon Goslin George Grantham Charles Grimm Stanley Harris Leo Hartnett Harry Heilmann Rogers Hornsby William Jacobson Walter Johnson Joseph Judge Willie Kamm Ray Kremer Walter Lutzke Martin McManus Earl McNeely Edmund Miller Clarence Mueller Robert W. Muesel Glenn Myatt Frank O'Rourke Ralph Perkins Eppa Rixey Edwin Rommel Ed. Roush Harold Ruel Charles Ruffing Geo. H. Ruth Joseph Sewell Ray Shalk J. R. Shawkey Earl Sheely William Sherdell Urban J. Shocker George Sissler Earl Smith Sherrod Smith Tristram Speaker Homer Summa Hollis Thurston Philip Todt George Torporcer Harold Traynor Kenneth Williams Ernest Wingard Ivy Wingo Glen Wright If everyone would check their 1925/26 exhibits to see if they have any of the cards listed in the list of 71 that does not have a box (the scd listed this as 70 cards so it is possible that one of these might be found without a box), thanks.

Legendary
In the recently concluded Legendary auction, there were two 1925 Exhibits Lou Gehrig rookie cards. I have attached the scans from the auction. However, as mentioned previously in this thread, I believe that the blue tint card (from this lot listing: Link) is actually a 1926 Exhibits card and not 1925 since it has that blue tint. (It is a very, very nice 1926 card although I wouldn't be sure that it would deserve the 12K price before BP.) The other Exhibits card has the gray tint (Link), so I believe that it is correctly labeled as 1925. (Note that I did not win or consign either card.) This would not be the first time that a TPG mislabled a 1925/26 card that has the box since this issue is very confusing for any collector. The Legendary auction did have a number of other 1925/26 lots such as here or here2 where it looks like there a mixture of gray and blue tint 1925/26 Exhibits. Likely Legendary pulled the blue tint Gehrig from one of these lots, and sent it to PSA where it came back with the 1925 flip. I did win this 1925 Exhibits Ruth which is gray here link, but as you can see from the scan in the auction, PSA labeled this card as a 1926 Exhibit.

Could well be the case; it is so hard to tell w/o the cards in hand. I've gotten so confused that I now pull out a 1925 and 1926 boxing card for comparison [dating those is a snap because they have printed backs with copyrights] to determine which is which.

I agree with you 100% Gary, on the Gehrigs the PSA 6 is a 1926, the 3 MK is a 1925, in the lots they mixed up years and many were graded incorrectly. It looked to me liked they grouped both years together then just picked all the better conditioned cards and labeled them 1925 then all the lower grade in the 1925/26 lot. It is one of the hardest issues to tell apart I have ran into. As Adam said having them in hand makes a big difference, another problem is some AH's and ebay sellers altering their scans for brightness and contract which can really change the tint and makes it impossible to tell what tint color they really are.
Congrats on the 1925 Ruth its a blazer!
