The Million Dollar Babe Ruth Rookie Card ?

November 14, 2008

The Honus Wagner T206 card recently sold for over a million dollars in an auction a few months ago.  Is it possible that there is a Babe Ruth baseball card that can eclipse that amount.  Babe Ruth has a 1914 Minor League Rookie card which was produced by the Baltimore News.  There are only 9 known to exist and the popularity and rarity of this card are just starting to come to life.  Many collector's and card dealers did not  know this card existed. This rare Babe Ruth baseball card may surpass the T206 Honus Wagner. Below is a list of some of Babe Ruth's best cards and were you can find them.

1915 Babe Ruth Sporting News Rookie

This one of Babe Ruth's rarest cards and buying this graded baseball card will cost you more than a month's salary.  This card is a great investment. The only question many collectors have is how many of these cards actually exist.  It is almost impossible to tell.  Grading card companies have graded a few hundred of these cards.  With that being said they normally get very low grades.  Due to the year and condition sensitivity of these cards do not expect to see any high grades of any of the Babe Ruth cards unless they have been tampered with in some way.
