I'm a Harold Lloyd fan too. I'm a bit of a 3D geek (have several cameras, viewers, projectors and over 3000 stereoviews). Harold Lloyd's granddauther was a keynote speaker at 3D-Con 2020 and presented a program showing some of his home movies and unseen photos from his archive. He was a founding member and first president of the Hollywood Stereoscopic Society and took more than 250,000 stereo images.
A few years ago I bought a lot of 10 Lloyd pics which included one with Babe Ruth from the film Speedy. Always love crossover items that fit multiple collections of mine.

IMO, The Josetti Card is underappreciated by the hobby. The photo was taken during September 1927 in front of the Players’ Entrance at Yankee Stadium and was used by the newspapers nationwide when Ruth hit his 60th HR. If you believe the photo caption used by the papers , Ruth is showing Harold Lloyd the bat he used to hit his 60th HR.
