The Bulgaria Ruth is a nice photo of a pensive Ruth, even with the be-suited Schmelling. At least Schmelling looks a little better in formal attire than that creepy little bird man in the ill fitting suit on the E121 Ruth card. And a bonus is that it was taken on the field, as it features a couple of his teammates in the dugout on the bottom right corner of the card.

If one of the reasons you like the Sanella is because of the size, you would be disappointed with the Bulgaria card, as it is only 1-5/8 x 2-3/8".

This is true, I do like the it's on the field/dugout.

I don't like the size of the Ruth per-se, but I don't mind it. I think SGC emphasizes the size, and even exaggerates it with the unfitting slab.
