Common flaws with baseball cards include: rounded edges, creases, off centered, and faded color. Any or all flaws will devalue the card significantly. The value of this card along with the other 4 cards from the set are as the original answer states above. As a sports card dealer I have sold both raw and graded versions of this card and the others from this set. I sold 2 cards from this set on eBay back in 2007 which were graded by PSA, each received a grade of a PSA 8 NM-Mt and bidding was fierce for a card which is thought not to have widespread awareness. The results of the sales for each card exceed $27. The raw issues sell between $1.00 each and $ 15 for the set on average. The added value of the graded version is directly linked to the cards Hologram Foil which most often has flaws and/or shows wear which the card has endured. With that said the ability to grade these cards with PSA and acheive a PSA 10 or PSA 9 is highly unlikely. The current PSA Population report for the cards are as follows: * Card #1 - BABE RUTH 1914-1919 RED SOX PITCHER - Has had only 2 cards acheive a grade of a PSA 9 Mint with none having been graded higher. * Card #2 - BABE RUTH LOU GEHRIG CAREER STATS - Has had only 2 cards acheive a grade of a PSA 9 Mint with none having been graded higher. * Card #3 - BABE RUTH THE CALLED SHOT - Has had only 2 cards acheive a grade of a PSA 9 Mint with none having been graded higher. * Card #4 - BABE RUTH ROGER MARIS 61 IN 61-60 IN 27 - Has had only 1 card acheive a grade of a PSA 9 Mint with none having been graded higher. * Card #5 - BABE RUTH 1914-1935 - Has had 2 cards acheive a grade of a PSA 9 Mint with 1 card having been graded a PSA 10. If a PSA 8 can realize a sales price of nearly $30 then considering the rarity and difficulty of obtaining a PSA 10, the value is surely headed upward and probably is dependant on what the buyer is willing to pay for the seemingly most perfect example of a card. An example of this is about 6 weeks ago on eBay a 1986-87 Fleer #57 Michael Jordan Rookie Card Graded by BVG as Pristine and 1 of 2 cards to acheive such a grade sold at $150,000.00. About $145,500 more than the average PSA 10 Sells for. Now that's true love of the hobby!
If the baseball you have is an Official Major League baseball then you could use the chart I have set up to help date the ball. You just need to identify the league president that appears on the ball. If not I would need more information to help you out.

on a rookie card for baseball you will see the players minor league stats like their AAA team and AA team stats. I'm not sure about other sports but I collect baseball cards and if they have any stats from the major league it isn't a rookie card. A Rookie Card is a players first year of cards, whether or not it is his rookie season. Players may have one or dozens of rookie cards, depending on how highly touted he was as a youngster and in which year his rookie card was issued. A players rookie card could be issued after he has played in the majors, and will list his major league stats for any number of years he has played. Some rookie cards might have information on the players minor league career, or be noted as a rookie card, but not all. Otherwise the information listed is no different than any other card.
if a rookie card mint from 20 to 40 dollars an average card varies by year, anywhere from 1 to 10 dollars

Depends on the value of silver... Most people would only pay about $1-3 more than the spot price of silver. You MIGHT find a die-hard New York Yankee's fan that would pay more and that is the game of supply and demand...
Good Luck.
