Graded EX 60 by SGC. Beautiful example of #6 Babe Ruth from the 1926 W512 strip-card series. Originally issued in strips, these cards (and almost all strip cards) are often found with irregular borders as they were cut by hand from the strips, as intended. Only ideally cut examples (like this one) are awarded numerical grades by SGC (and PSA). The card has bright colors, a crisp image, light corner wear, and impressive centering. The blank back is clean. This is a superb example of one of Babe Ruth's most classic 1920s strip cards and one that would be a significant addition to any Ruth, strip-card, or prewar-card collection.
