Thank you all for your valuable input.

The question now remains, what is the right process in soaking and cleaning up such a card? Heard about it on these boards from others that have gone through the process themselves, but kind of a leap in putting it into practice on such a card, even though the value is a fraction of what it should be because of its condition.

PS. There are 2 other Ruth cards from the same set, in similar condition.

Lucky.

I would leave it as is. It looks like a reprint to me.

Thanks again.

That was my first impression as well.

Here are some other definitely authentic tack-holed damaged cards from the same batch (not all mine). These cards did not appear to have been exposed to the sun. Over the years I have seen many cards that were tacked and had fading from the sun...just not sure if the Gehrig is one of them, as the fading looks a little different. Perhaps the fading is due to 'unnatural' lighting

You have the Canadian WWG set. You have both Ruth Cards? Can you post pictures of those?

It is hard to tell without a decent scan, but I agree with Michael that it may be a reprint. Even if it is real, soaking the card isn't going to make much of a difference in the appearance.
