When I first got into the hobby I got one of these from Gar Miller. It had a wrinkle through his head that couldn't be made out from the xerox he sent. I eventually sold it, got another in my last collection....sold it and reacquired this one late last year. I think it epitomizes what we do.

What am I missing that this Ruth is only a 2.5 ?

Default Better to have Babe Ruth than be Babe Ruthless
Nice card, and I bet you are thankful you decided to make your dream come true 7 years ago instead of now, at least in the regards to your bank account.

An earlier (purchased) version of this card was the 'backbone' of my collection for many years:

TY COBB 1911 T206 BAT ON PSA-4.5.jpg

Too many favorites to post, but these 2 cards have always captivated me for not just the beauty on the front, but the player write ups on the back.
