Daryle's newest pickup (CONGRATS) got me to thinking it's time for a Babe thread....

The Sport Kings arrived just yesterday, the result of a very smooth B/S/T transaction with Peter Spaeth. Thanks again, Peter.

Pretty straight vanilla, but definitely a highlight in my collection. I'm still as thrilled with it as I was the day I got it from Toby in a trade.

Anyone know if there is a story behind the E121 Babe holding a bird?

Walter, After extensive research (Boston Public School level that is). I couldn't find anything more on the 'bird' photo, but there was some thought provoking discussion on this a year back. As a bonus, there was a rare humorous comment by Adam.

Hello everyone. I'm brand new to the board but not the hobby. Am basically a news service photo collector but dabble in memorabilia, autographs, and ticket stubs. Here are a few of my favorite Ruth photos from my collection.

My best regards, Jimmy

I'm not that computer savvy (hell, I'm not that savvy at anything!) so I hope I did this right...
