Babe Ruth The Idol of the American Boy
 
Just digging through some old stuff my Father gave me and came across this book.

It is rough (very) on the outside and the first couple inner and back pages but from the contents on, it looks pretty darn good with no further damage that I can tell looking briefly.

Is anyone familiar with this book? Any info would be appreciate. Copyright 1930 Whitman Publishing Co. Racine, Wis. By Daniel, M, Daniel.

Found it. Although my copy is rough, I am pretty happy to own it!

That would explain it!

In my haste to find out more about it, I didn't even notice that:o

Unsigned, the book is quite common.

Surprising, and surprising it isn't worth more considering the great pics that are within.

Looks like my Father enjoyed his, or someone prior to him as it is in rough shape, front and back, to say the least.
