Babe Ruth photo?

[mschwade]

I just got back with my wife and sons from Disney World, we stayed at Saratoga Springs, designed and named after Saratoga Springs in New York.

In our hotel room, this picture was hanging on the wall, and as I took a closer look, I noticed the guy on the far right appeared to be The Bambino. With it being Upstate NY, I figured it most likely was him. Found it odd though that he would not be the center of the photo. I was wondering if anybody might know who was tossing the ball in the center of the image or even who the female might be? Sorry for the bad quality, but was taking with my phone through the glass. Thanks!

I highly doubt it.

Looks like Babe, Mrs. Babe, and Ty Cobb. hard to tell of course with any degree of certainty given clarity

I wish I could have got a better photo, I am almost certain it was the Babe.

Claire Ruth loved that style hat in white, and outfits in white - wore it for 30 years

Another - more to style

The woman in the photo is heaver and larger busted woman than the two pictures of Claire. She could have gained it and lost it again though.

The picture from Disney is from c.1945 I believe, I actually really do think it is Babe, Claire, and Cobb. The first picture I posted of Claire is c. 1949, shortly after Babe's passing, grief and no ready-supply of beer and hot dogs could have led to weight loss.
Any more discussion on Claire's dresses and weight/figure I am leaving to others! :rolleyes:

If the photo is c.1945, it is definitely not Ruth. He was nowhere near that fat in 1945.

I think its Ralph and Norton

Maybe the Babe took up bocci at Yaddo. :D
