There is a very interesting #181 SGC 20 Ruth in the For Love of the Game current auction; it is clearly misprinted and must have somehow been missed by the hawk-eyed quality control inspectors at the Goudey print plant. As others have clearly stated, the quality control standards at Goudey were vastly superior to early 20th century tobacco issuers. I have handled a lot of Goudeys over the years and have never seen one exactly like it, let alone on a Ruth specimen.
