Hall of Famer, in a highly prized “Rookie Card” appearance. This is one of just two examples at its tier (with none graded higher) among a total of eleven copies recorded in SGC\'s census reporting. The ultimate rookie card! There is, quite simply, no way to imagine that a 1-5/8\" x 3\" piece of cardboard could symbolize more history, more of the essence of American sport, than this M101-5 card depicting Babe Ruth as a slender young pitcher with the Boston Red Sox. The rookie card of Babe Ruth represents one of the peak achievements in all of card collecting, and a thoroughly commendable example of the coveted rarity is presented here. In many ways, the Babe\'s presence defined baseball, and this M101-5 is a cornerstone memento of his unparalleled career, a top-notch example of one of the most significant of all baseball cards. On the card\'s front, a magnificent image of the future legend reveals his pitching follow-through. The piece\'s corners exhibit faint traces of wear at their tips. The well-registered cardfront is wonderfully crisp and bright in its timeless aesthetic, and the clean, unprinted reverse displays a hint of toning at its left side. A foundation element of a meaningful Ruth collection, in visually superior Excellent-plus condition.
