Ruth or Cobb for a type card....or maybe a Wags?
Posted By: leon
As a type card collector there are quite a few sets with both Ruth and Cobby in them. We are only speaking contemporary cards here (pre-wwII).....Sets like V122, E120, E121 etc...come to mind. Throw Wagner (Honus not Heinie) into the mix and many times I am at a crossroads and don't know which one I want to keep. All of that being said if you had to pick one what would your order be....I think mine would be (1. being most likely to keep) |

to me...the aesthetic value of the card will dictate which one I'd keep...the pose...whether it's a common pose or a unique one...maybe the position of the player will factor in as well. |

1) Leon, nice problem to have, first of all! I still don't have a card of any of the 3...but that's my fault. I could probably cash in the collection and buy one |

I have always preferred cards with nice eye appealing photo/picture - kinda like show them to your wife and ask which she prefers based on which picture front she likes better. Or when shown to a buddy, he says, "nice card, cool picture, I like that shot." Give brownie points for which is more rare. |

If you were just getting one card, Ruth would be the player to own. However, there are so many issues that only portray Ruth (Drake's, Fro Joy, Blue Bird, Briggs, Ruth Candy, lots of foriegn sets, etc.), that he gets old. Cobb is in plenty of sets too, so I'd go with Wagner to spice things up. (Although a complete type set of Ruth would be cool...) |
