Default Deal of the Century

I was in Tampa last week and they had a silent auction to benefit the Children's Miracle Network at the Courtyard that I was staying at. They had this piece displayed called Deal Of The Century. I put a bid in - probably too high but it benefitted CMN so all was not lost. Late in the week, I received a call that I was the high bidder (which caused immediate buyers remorse that I overbid). It arrived today. It is nicely framed 24x30. It will look good on my basement. I am not sure if this is a piece that is at most memorabilia stores or not but thought that I would share.

Apparently everyone knows what this is except me

Is it a copy of the Yankee/Red Sox Ruth contract, framed with a copy of a Ruth photo?

I think it's a copy of the sale of Ruth to the Yankees.
