The 1948 Leaf Babe Ruth #3 represents one of the most celebrated post-war baseball issues, marking the inaugural major color card set of the modern era. Graded PSA 6 EX-MT, this example stands with a population of 104 in its grade. As a highly sought-after key card from a classic post-war release, this example qualifies as a blue-chip vintage asset and a cornerstone piece for serious sports card collections.
Featuring a portrait of Ruth in his New York Yankees cap set against a bold red field, card #3 commemorates the legendary slugger who finished his career with 714 home runs, seven World Series titles, and an inaugural induction into the National Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936. Issued near the time of Ruth's passing, the 1948 Leaf series remains a foundational anchor of post-war vintage card collecting.Show more
