[VintageBen]

Hey,


I bought my first one too... Yesterday.. but it was the 1925 Exhibits.

Happy for you man..


Before I clicked on your post, I thought you had bought a fake 1933 goudey reprint that are inundating ebay.

You did well..

Thanks for the kind words Ben. I didn't think about people interpreting it that way till after I posted it lol. I was mainly getting at that I love this card so much and that Ruth's are so far out of my league that me wanting another one is gonna get me in trouble haha.

obvious examples of what? a fake/reprint? Well the price is good sign? a '33 goudey #53 ruth is fake if it's for sale at a price of $4.25 or $9.99. One can search for themselves and say to themselves, "If you think it is too good to be true, it probably is!"


I just thought thought that the Original Poster bought a fake solely on the title of the thread. That is all

I haven't looked for those but i bet that there will be some. I would not purchase one that wasn't authenticated. If a person is gonna drop a lot of money on a card, they better do their homework and buy one that is graded by a reputable grading company (SGC, PSA, BVG)

Exhibits Ruth's are the best value out there. They are beautiful cards, with low populations, and they pre-date the goudeys by several years. They have a lot of room to grow. Congrats guys.

Beautiful Ruth. That's probably where I'll start, too. An Exhibit or a Goudey.

That is as good a Ruth Card to own as any! Congrats.

Love the '21 Exhibit pose. There are worse things to collect than Babe Ruth cards....
