Thanks, I don't really think vintage strip cards get the appreciation they should. They look much better in person too

from what i understand they are one of the first baseball cards to be sold just for cards, not gum or cigarettes and they came in 'strips' of around 10 players/actors or so. The early ones sell for around $1000 depending on the condition. I just think they are neat having cards of babe ruth during his playing days that in most cases predate the goudey by almost 10 years. thanks for the comments

Incredible mailday!!

Have never seen any of those cards before.

I love the look of vintage cards graded by SGC. I think it is the black backround that makes them really pop! Good stuff!

 

[jay1065]

Very nice. The 516 looks great.

Will SGC grade these or just authenticate them? Either way, I like that they're authenticated and not graded. Thanks for sharing these.

Awesome mail day !!!

Interesting how one 1920's card has Ruth throwing lefty and another has him throwing righty...

 

[baberuthfan]

They will grade some strip cards as long as they have the right dimentions, since these cards were hand cut not alot of them show that good and have borders either missing or off cut. I just like the uniformity of having all of them 'Authentic'.
