This Ruth is rare, but not as rare as the other cards shown in this amazing thread. I just love the way it looks...and it really bugs the guy who sold it to me when I post it.

Actually I own one of the Jean-donat Ruth cards and they are very very scarce. Only 6 of these cards have been graded. 1 by CSG graded a 1.5, 2 by PSA graded a 1 and a 1.5 and three by SGC graded a A, a 1.5 and your 6. You have the best one and they are not readily available. Nice card.

Thanks; that's why I bought it years ago. Would swap for a 1933 Goudey Ruth, if anyone is interested

1869 Redstockings Photo Disc (with closeups of front and back). Probably was a pin, but I really can't see evidence of that on the back. It's clearly a manufactured item, but have never heard of another surfacing.

Any Buzz Arlett fans here? Eight decades as the ML home run king!

Val: they are. All are among the ten ballplayers on the 4 on 1 Exhibit issue that uses the same artwork.

Idk if I’d say particularly rare, but as far as supply and demand, I just picked up the Magie error. IMG_6248.jpg

Awesome cards in this thread........ A few of my humble items.

being that this thread was resurrected...

Here's one of mine. I'm sure someone on the board has owned it before? I think there is 1 blue and 1 red? I'm sure someone knows more about it than I do? I have seen these with the entire diamond intact, but not the Wagner

There's one in the current REA, PSA 1.5. It will be interesting to see where it ends up. The marketing of it as "highest graded" is a bit of an irrelevancy given the SGC 80, but that's a nit I won't pick.
