Help ID'ing and Valuing This Babe Ruth Photo

[dallen]

The image is a Thompson Photo circa 1921

There are two original type 1 photos known of this image. Interesting both have "Babe" en route to the plate "Batter Up" written on the Reverse in Thompson's hand

The example shown here is a cropped example 2nd generation that was made to look old.

Make that three known original TYPE 1 Photos Doug.

I traded for this one a few weeks ago. Had posted it in this months pick-up thread on the memorabilia side.
