1935GoudeyRuth

Need this card for my set. If you click the enlarge picture underneath the scan you'll notice a faint smudge or something that goes horizontally across the middle of the top two pictures. Since it goes across the Babe Ruth picture, and that's obviously the key to this card, how do you think this effects the value? I mean it's a PSA 5 so it's going to have problems but is this worse than normal? Would you classify this as a low level PSA 5 or am I being too anal since it is a 5? The card seems to have strong corners and centering for a 5 so the smudge probably was the reason for the grade. Thanks for any help.

    I personally think its an awesome card... and that print line does little to affect the overall eye appeal.. I think its a rock solid 5...

    Looks pretty nice to me, especially for a 5

    Send an email to the seller and ask him if it is on the card or the holder. Also ask him to email you another scan of the front and back of the card. I just did the same thing myself on an auction I was bidding on. The seller responded within an hour of my request. With great pictures of the corners and the back. The card I was bidding on was a 1933 Goudey Sport Kings #21 Johnny Weissmuller PSA 8. Oh, I won the auction. Your particular card looks pretty good to me.

    It's on the card, I talked to him a couple days ago. Found out his reserve as well. It's a printing smudge as best as I can describe it. Goes across the horizontal length of the card, across Ruth's lower lip. Thanks for the replies, appreciate it.

    It looks awfully nice for a 5. I would guess 6 yto 7 if not for the smudge.

    Just my $0.02
