This 2006 Exquisite Babe Ruth game-used/cut autograph card is among the finest modern memorabilia pieces ever produced. The “Sultan of Swat” presides on this incredibly scarce relic, which couples a pair of game-worn uniform swatches and a cut signature (placed on a pair of circa 1939 baseball commemorative stamps). Serially numbered 2/2, these “material cuts” are crowned by Ruth’s stately image. The endorsement from Ruth spans 2” in black ink, with the signature grading an impressive (“8”). The Exquisite series originated as a redemption program for Upper Deck’s 2006 SP Legendary Cuts series. Out of the entire production line, only two Ruth exemplars were awarded. The redemption card from which this “prize” originated accompanies this astounding keepsake. With the only other 2006 Exquisite Ruth game-used/signature available in this auction, this pairing provides an unprecedented opportunity for the Ruth enthusiast. The card is certified on the reverse by JSA.
