The Babe signing autographs for servicemen while in the service himself. This photo was taken on my birthday in 1926. Wish one of them was for me!

Here are a couple of Ruth snapshots (pardon the Gehrig). All three snapshots are the same size but I have difficulties with my scanner at times.

This Ruth die-cut display was used to promote his candy in the late 1920's. Its stands by itself and is 7 inches high and 4 inches wide at the base.

Sammy Vick and Ray Morgan side-written bats, plus e135 Morgan.
Vick was a star player for the New Orleans Pelicans after his time with the Yankees. He was replaced by Babe Ruth.
Morgan was a 2nd baseman for the Senators, most famous for a game vs. Babe Ruth, the pitcher. Ruth walked Morgan on four pitches to lead off the game. Ruth was then ejected for arguing balls and strikes. Ernie Shore replaced Ruth. Morgan was caught stealing and Shore retired the next 26 batters in a row.
