Wow!!! It's really the Babe (either that or it's John Goodman playing the Babe). You be the judge.

Clearly the Babe. You can tell by those distinctive Ruthian eyelashes.

Just found out that it is an ultra-rare pre Yankees photo making this very valuable and worthy of one of the finest museum collections. Ruth is wearing a suit that was issued ONLY to the Boston Red Sox players in 1915.

That's amazing...word is that the Babe is actual holding his first home run ball and that it is autographed and noted as such. Unfortunately, the photographer has cropped it out of the photo but, still, this just adds to the value of this tremendously rare image! Better get your bids in quick cuz with this new information the seller will likely be changing this to a private auction with no returns.

Baseball, baseball, baseball, not everything is baseball. This is Babe Ruth the butcher, not Babe Ruth the baseball player. Wake up and smell the pork loin.

Dear Roy, please look up the definition of sarcasm in a dictionary. Each and every post above yours is the epitomy of sarcasm.

He must be 140 years old by now! Maybe they didn't have sarcasm back in his day.

Really though...is it the Babe? $9.99 would be an absolute steal! And I only bid on private auctions.

Many "semi-thieves" ask themselves the question "What can I get people to pay me too much money for, and how can I do it?"

...questionable product, access to countless low-i.q. buyers, no policing of sales environment. EBAY EBAY EBAY EBAY

Babe Ruth is like John F Kennedy, Elvis and Maryln Monroe. Even if you they don't give two cents about sports, most Americans know what Babe Ruth is supposed to look like ... On a more technical note: considering the age of the photo itelf, Babe would have been about ten at the time this photo was taken, which this man obviously is not.

Since I couldn't "get over it" . I figured I may as well post, this would be a very nice picture of the Babe if it was him. The only problem is that this is a picture of Lou Costello, of Abbott & Costello fame. This picture was taken right after they did there famous "whose on first" routine.

I didn't realize Al Capone played the piano.

Well blow me away. It ain't Ruth after all. It's his Boston teammate!

Actually, it's the opera singer, Enrico Caruso-- though I wouldn't be surpised if Capone was a fan.
