Nice one, always fun to add a Ruth.

One problem with set collecting is paying up for players I don't know. I won this JB Ray. I learned by looking it up that there was an Irv Burton "Stubby" Ray on Boston in 1889. A utility infielder. If I ever get tired of it, it will probably be tougher to move than a Babe Ruth.

The Newsboys (and the OJ Cabinets) were a relative bargain in the auction, tough cards to find and great looking. Seemed like a good deal, not where the market is focusing now. Enjoy them!

Yup, I was an early bidding on this, and quickly dropped out with the rising price tag. A very rare, obscure, and tough to find set for sure. You actually working to complete the set? If so, good luck.

Was surprised with what I thought ended up being a very strong price for this card, especially with it being of such an obscure and relatively unknown player as you noted, along with the fact it is altered in some manner. Still, I think it is a very nice, complete example of a card from a truly tough and rare set. Congrats on a super pickup.

Thanks, Bob, I picked up a few over the years and now I'm 2/3 there if you don't count a master set at 30. I think I may 1 day get to 15 different fronts.

Great cards, all. Good luck on the T222's, DJ.

I lucked out and came across a small collection of 5 of these quite a few years ago. Not in great shape, and missing pieces/parts, but all the player images were there. Only cards I ever submitted for grading/authentication, and all came back as authentic, so was very happy. Got both Number 7 and Diamond S backs. Never seen a C. S. White backed one yet, though they supposedly exist for all players in the set as well. Good luck going for a complete set, but possibly going after a master set..........you'd really need some luck then. LOL I've only picked up one additional one of these cards over the years since, so not too far behind you with six different fronts myself. They just keep going for way too big prices every time I eventually do see/find one for sale. Very underappreciated set though, that is for certain.

Great cards for everyone else as well.

I'm right there with you, at least yours looks like a complete card. I got the T222 lot primarily for the Henry (top row, 2nd from right).

I saw a video on this. I think it came from an antique store in Wilmington Delaware. If I remember correctly, someone just left it for the owner and she kept it for years and is now letting it go.

Since I already had it in PSA 5, it was obviously time to upgrade to this PSA 6. And for that matter, I got it for a lot less than I was expecting, particularly since a PSA 7 went for $15.6K in November 2021 (I was the underbidder on that one).

Also, a few observations about a couple of prices that caught my eye:

This 311 Mantle in PSA 7, albeit with an early cert, sketchy centering, and a generous tilt, went for "just" $336K. But with one of those fancy stickers on it! It might only grade at PSA 5 these days, but who wouldn't want to buy this holder?

https://bid.robertedwardauctions.com...?itemid=125688

This 54T Mays in PSA 9 went for a lot less than the last one, with the last one going for an extra nutty $84K in April 2022, with this one all the way down at $50.4K, which is about where they were in 2021.
