1916 Babe Ruth Rookie Card
Long overshadowed by the legendary T206 Honus Wagner and 1952 Topps Mickey Mantle rookie, Babe Ruth's 1916 M101-4 Sporting News rookie card is finally receiving the attention it deserves. This particular one is a fine example, rated a Good-Very Good 2.5 by Beckett Grading Services. Recently discovered inside an antique piano as it was moved, it has a blank back, shows the Bambino as a lefty pitcher for the Red Sox, and is ready for display as the crown jewel of any memorabilia collection.
