A Schapira Ruth, and for fun, a Babe Ruth as chariot driver newspaper illustration from the early 1930's.

My one big regret throughout my lengthy collecting career. Not having acquired more Ruth cards early on. :)

I think I need to protest this thread

To Many Great Cards and Ruth Items....

This is making my buying addictions to resurface

And making me look for a Ruth to add..

Great Thread but Dangerous

1927 Ruth

GeoPoto 02-07-2023 07:54 AM

When he was only 47 . . .

. . . he joined Walter Johnson in an exhibition appearance during a Washington/New York doubleheader on August 23, 1942, for the benefit of the Army-Navy relief funds.

The first picture shows Ruth acknowledging the crowd of more than 75,000 at Yankee Stadium.

The second picture finds Ruth slamming one of Barney's fast ones out to "Ruthville". Benny Bengough is catching, and Billy Evans is behind the plate.

Dave - If you ever want to frame that autograph with a "better" picture and get rid of that "junky" photo, please let me know.
