Offered here is a striking example of one of Babe Ruth’s most significant early Yankees-era cards: the 1921 E121 American Caramel, graded SGC 5 (EX). Issued during the Babe’s third season with the Bronx Bombers, this card captures Ruth in his classic batting pose, immortalizing the early stages of his transformation into a cultural icon and baseball’s first true superstar. The card boasts strong centering, crisp image clarity, and bold contrast—attributes seldom seen in this issue—while light, honest wear keeps it firmly within its assigned grade. With exceptional eye appeal and historical gravitas, this mid-grade Ruth presents a rare blend of condition and prestige from one of the hobby’s most desirable caramel card sets.
