Babe Comes Home Memorablia Help
 
Picked up this "Babe Comes Home" antique leather case on the B S T board a while ago. It has what appears to be a hand painted lobby card sized movie promotion on the side. Have looked off and on on line and come up empty except for one antique doctor`s bag with the same graphics. Brought it to the Wilmington Shriner`s Show, otherwise known as Boston show, last year and again no help. Any info, thoughts or speculation would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, the "54" is the best.

I'm curious what type of feedback you received at the shows?

Feedback was pretty much the same from the dealers and a few auction house reps I talked with. Most said it`s interesting and might be true to the period but they had never seen it, or anything close, before. One guy, who if you`ve been to the Shriner`s you`d know, said yes period and hand painted. Have been poking around for a couple of years but still pretty much in the dark. Always looking for Ruth items and movie related pieces seems to be one of my main niches. Again, thanx for any help or thoughts boys.
