Default 1921 Exhibit Ruth

This might have been covered before and if so, forgive me. But what uniform is Ruth wearing in the 1921 Exhibit. Cause it’s not a Yankee uniform. I believe at one point someone told me it was a photo from a film? I’m sure someone here knows. Thanks all!

Thanks. I can’t make out the letters too great. But seems like an “L” and an “A” as part of a word in the second half of the name on the jersey front. And the cap insignia doesn’t look like the interlocking NY. Looks more like a star...

You can see the "New York" better in the photo that was used for the card.

Thanks for following me on Twitter
Jeff is correct, def 1920 and one of earliest shots in Yankee uniform.

Such a great image. I always loved the 1921 Exhibit card, but the detail on the original photo takes it to another level.

Agreed, it's superb, one of Ruth's best photos in my opinion.
