This rare insert series honors significant achievements from Babe Ruth's career. Each card features a swatch of a Ruth game used uniform and is hand numbered in blue ink on the front. The total amount of each card made reflects either the year or statistical figure of the featured event. For example there are 20 cards of card #9 which recognizes Babe Ruth's 1920 home run title. Since the fewest produced of any of the 21 cards is 14 (Upper Deck made 14 card #1's) there can only be 14 possible complete sets in existence. That being said since the cards are spread throughout personal collections probably no more than a few of these complete sets do and will ever exist. Offered here is a near complete set that includes 18 of the 21 cards. Here is the breakdown of this group by PSA grade showing the cards edition number: PSA GEM MINT 10: #7 (08/27) 16 (04/29) 18 (29/31).
