Unquestionably whenever Ruth's likeness appears in a baseball card set during his playing years it automatically becomes the set's key card. It is no exception with 1929 Kashins as the value of Ruth's card eclipses that of all the others despite its plentiful nature in comparison with the other cards in the set. With well over 100 copies graded the Babe Ruth is by far the highest population card in the set and yet the condition sensitivity of the cards results in just a handful of cards graded NM-MT - and none higher. This is an extremely pleasing example graded VG 40 by SGC with some minor corner and surface wear responsible for the grade. The image quality is crisp and sharp. A well-known image of Ruth wearing his Yankee pinstripes in his peak years.
