1923 w515 strip cards
 
thoughts ???

I recently picked up the ruth card, and today picked up the cobb.

well, because, ......... they're RUTH and COBB !!! LOL :doh:


would have loved to pick up the goudey ruth, but that ship more than
sailed.


so , with the insane price increases on these two, I "zigged, while others
are zagging". so to speak.

the other ruth I have is the 1932 sanella ruth which is starting to see a
decent increase in price.

I also waited too long on the Goudeys and got priced out, so I went with a '48 Leaf Ruth this week. That being said, there are some Ruth/Gehrig strip cards I'm going to go after, but I'm not saying which ones until I get them because I don't need the prices run up even more insane than they already are getting. :cool:

Nice
 
Great decision in my opinion. I picked up a Ruth 1923 515-1 about 10 years ago. I think the Sanella Ruth's are a smart buy as well. They were hot back in the 1990's when Alan Hager was selling them up and once people found out it was Hager and that there were a lot more than originally thought they dropped in price.

THANKS for the feedback !


interestingly enough, after I bought my ruth [B](sgc 3)[/B] at an Indiana card show,

an sgc 2 ruth sold on march 8th for $ 2,337 and it basically had a "hole"
in the top border. it was a 1923 515-1.

I actually bought a 1923 515-2 which is actually more rare.

psa has graded approx. 60 515-1's and 20 515-2's. (do not know about sgc)
