Vintage Glove Babe Ruth????
I picked up this old glove off eBay last year. The seller stated that he picked it up at an Estate sale in Atwater California 15 or so years ago from an old fella. His listing stated that there was a lot of old markings and names on the glove and one was Babe Ruth. He stated that he figured that it was put on the glove by kids and that there was no chance it was an actual Ruth signature!
Anyway I thought the glove with all of the scribbles/names and cities marked on it was kinda an interesting piece if even only for conversation so I bid on it and won.
I know that Ruth Barnstormed thought California in 1927 with Gehrig and did play 2 games in Marysville California on Oct. 25th and then down to Fresno for a game with the Japanese Allstars on the 29th I think. Anyway the interesting thing is that someone has written Marysville California about 3 times on this glove.
Just a fluke I'm sure but it sure has me wondering???????????
Any thoughts from you guys would be appreciated !!
