Default Ebay seller Weigel618
I asked the seller "What are the results of your submission to PSA?"

Waiting for a response.

So the whole story about players, when they first saw Ruth, saying, "There's Dunn's new Babe," is wrong. Apparently Ruth was called "Babe" at least since the age of 7.

"I sent the card in to psa to authenticate and they had never seen one before."



Given the tennis shoes, this must be the "Back to the Future" Ruth rookie card.

Thinking of sending in a grilled ham & cheese sandwich cut out in the likeness of Mike Trout.

Wonder if they've seen one of those before.

I like the part where the seller states that he "sent the card to PSA to authenticate and they had never seen one before." It's like sending them a T213, the card is delayed as it goes to "Research"

I give PSA credit for not grading it an 8.
