This is probably the most gorgeous (and outrageously well preserved) pre-war uniform we've ever auctioned here at Heritage. It was worn by star catcher Muddy Ruel as a ringer for the Chicago White Sox on the 1924 Baseball Tour of Europe. Interesting factoid about Ruel: he was the catcher when Ray Chapman was fatally beaned in 1920, and when Ruth hit his sixtieth homer of 1927. The Forrest Gump of backstops, always a part of baseball history!
