Does anyone know what this is?

I came across this online. Looks like Babe Ruth, but there was not much information at all about it. Looks unique though and something I may be interested in adding to my collection. Seems like the seller doesn't know what it is. Any help on origin value etc would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys

Sorry if it is an annoying question as that is not my intent.

Is there a "B" on the cap? It looks like they tried to portray him as a Boston Brave.

How big is the figure?

EYECOLLECTVINTAGE 02-22-2016 08:39 PM

7 inches and its a M on the cap. Any ideas?

They didn't come painted, you had to do it yourself or have someone else do it. What you have is just the Ruth assembled figure from the kit that someone has already painted.
