Lot #14 1921 W516-2-3 # 10 Babe Ruth (extremely rare) Cond: SGC 3.5

We all know how hot early 1920s Babe Ruth cards have been in recent years. A fresh walk-in at the National, this is really special. There are several variations to the 1921 W516 strip cards, this is the scarcest series. In fact, PSA has only graded two examples of this card, SGC presumably something similar. In terms of price comps, there is JUST ONE PUBLIC SALE, an awful condition card from back in 2016. The offered card is also extremely attractive in addition to being so rare. Beautifully cut, this has a perfectly registered image, rich color and very clean surfaces. The borders look good, the back is perfectly clean. Wear at the tip of the upper right corner led to the 3.5 grade, this is an exceptionally fine card for the grade. It is not every day that a 1921 Babe Ruth card of this rarity and beauty enters the market, it will be very interesting to see where this little treasure ends up! Great card.
