W573 Ruth Variation or maybe a reprint?

I'm helping a friend with this one. I don't have the card in my possesion so I can't really answer any specific questions. Would like to know if this is a variation of the W573 strip card series. Notice the difference in the borders at the bottom of the card. The card has a blank back. The version of the Leverette card below is the only variation I've seen. All help is appreciated.

I borrowed this image from OldCardboard for comparision.

I wanted to also thank Trae for his free image hosting at MLBVintage - Thanks Trae!

Dennis,

Your card is not a W573... and it isn't a reprint.

It's the Ruth card from the TCMA 1927 Yankees set put out in the late 1970s or early 1980s.
