Default The Babe turns 125 today!

Born on February 6, 1895, Babe would be 125 years old today. Show 'em if you got 'em!

Man Ray those are some hot pieces but G K`s Babe as a Brave is an absolute show stopper. I can see him rounding the bases after his 3 homer game and going out the true legend he was ! Enjoy that bad boy for years to come sir.

Thanks. It's an honor to have Graig's work hanging on my wall. I like to imagine all the hard living and untold stories that occurred between the first image and the second image...less than a decade in normal folks' lives, but, man-oh-man, he lived for the moment...and as Casey would say, 'He had a lot of them.'

Of course, the scans are from his website...since I can't seem to replicate the quality of the images with my phone...but, I will continue to try and will replace those images when I do.

Great card Erick! If you ever get tired of it I could offer a good home to the Babe.

I'm at work, so I had to find a generic photo. My only Ruth is the 1934 Butterfinger. Mine has the top left corner missing, and a little piece missing center left edge, otherwise it's in great condition for such a fragile premium!

I loved looking at last year's thread. Keep 'em coming.

I used to own one. It is not a cabinet photo. I would call it a premium.
And this rppc was only $51 dollars over on the"Ruth for under $1500 thread", or at least it was a year and a half ago, from out BST area. Shown many times but still a cool card.

Thanks Jay,

I don't see it going anywhere though.

Leon: Great RPPC! Out of our two copies I think I've maybe seen one other sold, not sure, but they're certainly far from common!

Here's a few more of my favorite early ones and my Graig Kreindler of Ruth from 1920 (22x34)...
