Good luck on your quest! I too started collecting vintage even younger than you. You have a head start on everyone and the cards are a great investment moving forward. I like the suggestions of the Goudey’s, but if you do that I think the Yellow batting pose will have the most upside since it was printed slightly less than the others. Supply and demand. Listen to Jay Miller he gave great advice as far as not jumping on the first one and everything else he said. Another trend in our hobby is eye appeal over technical grade. Make sure whatever copy you get has nice eye appeal more than the grade.

One more important thing: buy a card you really like. If it is just money then buy stocks. One of the great things about cards or art is that they can be pleasing to own and valuable.

Young man definitely go about this cautiously - but don’t let anyone talk you out of what you want to do. I can think of 1000 other things that would be far worse at age 14 than investing in a choice, vintage Ruth card. In fact if you have the ability I think it’s an excellent idea.
With that being said, the ‘21 exhibit is a wonderful selection and that would be my top recommendation.
