Description

Ideal portrait of the Babe

Spectacular vintage glossy 3.5 x 5.5 postcard photo of Ruth mid-swing in his Yankee pinstripe pants, attractively signed in fountain pen by Ruth. Faint postmark impression to face and a two small, unobtrusive creases near the bottom edge, otherwise fine condition. Accompanied by the original mailing envelope, postmarked May 22, 1948. An absolutely wonderful photo of the Babe, signed only three months before his death at the age of 53. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
