Sent it to PSA and it got the grade it deserves. Just arrived back in-hand last night. It's no beauty queen, but still quite presentable for a 1.

I would be proud to have this card in my collection. Great detective work, the sea of fake Goudey Ruths on ebay is not for the feint of heart.
Congratulations!
