FS: 1922 Toronto Baseball Souvenir Score Book (Babe Ruth)
 
4 Attachment(s)
Hi everyone,
Available for sale is a scarce souvenir score book associated with the Toronto Maple Leafs minor league organization from 1922. A picture of Babe Ruth - labeled "King of Sluggers" - is featured on the eighth-to-last page. The book measures 6" x 9". This book is in fantastic condition (score card was not filled out and there is no writing throughout the book). Overall VG/EX appearance with moderate peripheral wear, some dis-coloration at the edges of covers and pages, and a minor spot of light staining on the front cover. Binding intact and all pages are present. I've only ever seen one other and mine is in far better condition.

Price is $359.99 including shipping, tracking & insurance. PM or post if interested and thanks for looking!

Cool looking item Jeff. What uniform is he wearing in that photo?

Hi Jay,
It looks like he's in his Yankees uniform but the logo on his hat was whited out before the page was printed.

I have been collecting Toronto baseball items for a number of years and while I don't follow items and sales religiously, I have never seen a TML baseball program approach the asking price. Is there a precident for the suggested pricing? Hope you get what you need/want on it...just surprised if that is the going rate. Thought it would be closer to $100.

Hi Chris,
Don't want to offend, but I've seen only one other of these and it sold for over $200 in crappy condition and was scored by the original owner. Mine is so much nicer. If you're interested throw me an offer (I always leave room for negotiations) or maybe you're too busy collecting 1986 Topps cards! I've turned down offers around $275.00 FYI.

I stand corrected :). Best wishes for a great sale. Too rich for my blood. :)
