A lot . I'd say it definitely has to be less than the Clemente IMO - I'd guess around $2,700?

Detective Tony over here. I'm positive that's the item. Anyone with some keen photoshop skills could overlay those images.I came across this closed auction while looking for something else

That is going to be interesting to watch.
I just bought my first barrel. Cant wait for it to come in!
Oh frieken my! There was a time last year where I had thought about moving stuff to pursue on of the Knobs that were up as a centerpiece , this blows those away. Unfortunately I can't approach getting this. What's yours / anyone's estimate of a decent price ?
Ryan
Which one?!
Well, aren't you Sargeant Secrets.It will be a surprise!!
It will be a surprise!!
I'm going to take a guess and say you picked up one of the ones that that donut guy had up for sale. Either the Henderson, the Carter, or the Bench. My first guess will be Bench, followed by Henderson, followed by Carter.
Lol
It's so hard to estimate a price for this but this card has EVERYTHING going for it. It's 2002 and back in those days, UD had independent third-party authentication legitimizing the purchases that they made of game used items. I still fully believe in the authenticity of modern GU cards, but even the doubters of those would tell you this card is authentic. It also has the Babe Ruth full nameplate versus George; the bat itself has a lot of wear. I mean this card has absolutely everything going for it, I'd say as high as $20K? Maybe $25K? I couldn't see it going any higher than that and I think whoever paid that much would be crazy but I definitely think they exist because look at what the 2006 Sterling Gibson bat nameplate sold for and that bat wasn't even 100% proven to be authentically used by Gibson, just definitively proven to be a Gibson model bat.
I've tried to track that sale of the Gibson , I can't find anything on it , or mention that it was pulled. What did that bring ? Same w/ Shoeless Joe , there was a barrel made of him as well correct ? Prime cuts , and not sure if there were others. If so I can't find data on that either , if you know and can share , please do.
In regards to the Ruth , it's about the perfect card if you ever wanted one. From the "genuine" you can see, to the name still being bold. If I could ever pull it off this would be up there on modern cards.
I get a kick of of the sellers last sale being a .99 Chris Duhon , to a $20000+ Babe Ruth.

The Tier One knob image and look is great , I just don't think the knob has any marking on it which I want on one personally. And yeah I just this Ruth looks better than the others I have seen.
It looks like Prime Cuts had at least to Shoeless , but I think Sterling was following up the Gibson w the Jackson but I don't see anything on it or an image .
