You have Ruth's autograph for what he did as a player, not for his being sick and almost dead. I understand why you would want a photo that relates as closely as possible to the actual autograph, but sometimes that doesn't make sense. I also am not a fan of the framed pieces that have an autograph framed alongside a photo of the athlete as an old man, dressed in civilian clothes, regardless of how great they look for their age, unless they are golfers. Or vice-versa - a photo of the athlete in his prime, framed with a signature from when they were so old they could barely sign their name. It's just a matter of aesthetics.
