Description

Boldly signed action shot of the 'Sultan of Swat' in Japan

Outstanding vintage glossy 5.25 x 3.5 photo of Ruth taking a mighty swing in a crowded stadium during the 1934 Tour of Japan, boldly signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To John Truemner, Sincerely, Babe Ruth.” The "US" patch is clearly seen on his sleeve in this sharp image. In fine condition, with light creasing and crazing across the center. A superb action shot from the Great Bambino's famous tour of the Far East. Encapsulated in a PSA/DNA authentication holder and accompanied by a full letter of authenticity from PSA/DNA.
