A pair of legends meet in this 1935 original, one of a kind, from-the-camera cellulose negative of Babe Ruth taken by master photographer, Charles Conlon. Posed swinging bat with the Boston Braves in the late stages of his career, the Sultan of Swat could clearly still pack the house as is evident in this 4x4.75" negative. Includes original envelope with Conlon's writing, which is also at the top edge of the negative. Great condition, two icons for the price of one.
