Murratti Ruth is not Ruth!?
Just saw this post interesting. Glad I don’t own one.

I don't normally look at a lot of threads in this section, but the title piqued my curiosity. I am glad I did. I knew immediately it was not Babe Ruth. I guess the expression 'You tell a lie enough times and people will believe it' holds true here. For everyone's edification here is a photo of Ernst (NOT Ernest) Brandsten with two of his star divers at Stanford circa 1926-27. Dave Fall on the left won a silver medal in diving in 1924. He became an attorney practicing maritime law in California. Just before his death in 1964 he was appointed a district court judge in California. Pete Desjardins on the right won a silver medal in diving in 1924 and gold medals in both diving events in 1928. This is also posted in the other thread about this card.

Ernie
Thanks, Michael.
Dale Irvin posted this picture of Ernie at the same venue coaching another diver. Note the hat, bow tie and socks. Even the same jacket is hanging on the railing:

Interesting. I have one of these in my collection, and just assumed Ruth had slimmed down. Oh well, its staying in my Yankees collection, as i think most people still consider it a Ruth card. I bought it years ago when it wasnt too expensive, so no big deal.

Yes, I saw that image. I thought it would be helpful to people to see a full on photo of Brandsten for reference. It would also be good to give those moron slabbers a little smack on the nose. It is not the same sweater by the way. The one on the card has an 'A', the one in the photo has numbers. Yes, they were taken around the same time, but you will also notice that the white slippers would be visible if they were they were done close together.
