Please share if you have any.
The earliest I've found so far is from the August, 1915 issue of 'Baseball Magazine'. I may also have a Spring Training photo with him, from the April, 1915 issue.

Little earlier than this one, but Ruth was included in the 1914 Providence Grays Team Photo & the Baltimore Orioles team photo both located in the 1915 reach guide...

Thanks Dave. Yes, I have seen those. I'm more curious about earliest pictures of him as a member of the Boston Red Sox.
Here is one from Spring Training, 1915 - from the May,1915 issue of 'Baseball Magazine':

Yep, thanks for posting!
Also, for those of you who collect Ruth photos, you might want to save a copy of the first one I posted in this thread - I thought it was the same as a common shot of him, but the angle is slightly different. Same session, but different photo.
Here's the more common one:
