Babe Ruth Film - pretty good
 

I love the fact that part of League Park that they showed in this fil is still standing and we can visit it. That is living history right there.

Great film

Ruth and Gehrig batting practice in color.

Nice clip. The man who occasionally pops into the foreground hitting infield from the left side of the screen is T206 subject Jimmy Burke, so it must be from 1931-1933.

That was outstanding! Thanks for sharing

I love watching their batting techniques. So different from what we are used to. Additionally, watching them play catch. Babe has a casual, side-arm throw that looks almost effortless. Another thing I noticed, when Babe was at bat (when he struck out) was how far back the 2nd baseman and the 1st baseman played him. They were on the outfield grass. Just interesting to see them play that far back.

Pretty sure that's colorized and not truly color but it doesn't much matter. Seeing those two in action like that with film at the correct speed is amazing.

"And the fans stream back in." haha

Great film. Thanks for sharing it.

and speaking of Ruth and the movies...
