Description: This is a lithophane of the 1916- Sporting News Babe Ruth card Here is a description of the original card,which can fetch millions of dollars: This is the rookie card of the greatest player who ever lived. It is one of his most difficult cards overall, making it one of the most important cards in the Sporting News Set. It pictures a young Ruth, firng the ball as a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox before they traded him to the rival New York Yankees. Ruth was an outstanding pitcher. He compiled a 94-46 record (.671 winning percentage) with 107 complete games, 17 shutouts and a career ERA of 2.28. In the World Series, he was even more impressive. Ruth went 3-0 with an ERA under 1.00! After three full seasons on the mound, the Red Sox began to use Ruth as a part-time outfielder in 1918. The rest is history. After they sent Ruth to New York in 1920, little did they know that it would result in a World Series drought that lasted until 2004. This card, the key to the 200-card M101-5 set, is often found off-center and features a variety of advertising backs, although most existing copies exhibit blank backs.
