Posted By: <b>leon</b><p>I still think that 328k is quite a bit of money for a baseball cap....As I said on the other side it is always supply vs demand in any collectible market....(thanks for posting this on this side)

BABE RUTH HAT SELLS FOR $328,000
 
Posted By: <b>Mark</b><p>Lots of money... But I would personally prefer a Babe Ruth Game-worn Yankees Cap to a Honus Wagner Card in mediocre condition. Just my personal preference,as this seems like a far more important historical relic than a card (for about the same price). <br /><br />The Cap is a very personal and vital piece of the game itself (and worn by its greatest player, no less). The card is something that simply commemorates the game. <br /><br />I know it's all about supply and demand however, and of course there is no right or wrong. Just my two cents...

Posted By: <b>brock</b><p>Just think back then they never used batting helmets so who knows how many home runs the Babe hit while wearing this hat.
