Presented is a card you don't see every day in any condition, but when one comes along in a PSA EX-MT 6, it stops us in our tracks. Issued the year the Yankees started playing in the stadium known as "The House that Ruth Built," this rare and colorful card is a must have for any vintage Ruth collector. Strip cards were always tough to find in high grade due to how easily they could tear. Made of fragile stock paper, this card presents beautifully with bold colors and really nice centering. Sharp corners and overall imagery are off the eye appeal charts. There are currently eight copies graded EX-MT in circulation and twelve graded higher according to the PSA consensus.
