Despite the lower grade this "photo montage" card of Babe Ruth from the E121 Series of 120 issue presents extremely well. The card is comprised of three distinct images: a close-up portrait of The Babe an action photo from the Stadium grandstand and a full-body image of Ruth holding his bat. All three are combined to create an interesting composite image of the game's greatest player. The grade of FAIR 20 assessed by SGC relates to overall wear including some heavy wrinkles throughout and a small speck of paper loss in the upper border. Corners are worn consistent with the assigned grade. Any card of Babe Ruth is a significant one; his 1920s E cards continue to rise in value almost by the day.
