From a baseball standpoint, it may just be the greatest story ever told. An orphaned Babe Ruth overcomes numerous obstacles to become baseball's savior and one of America's most notable success stories. In 1948, author Bob Considine penned the biography, as well as the screenplay for the movie of the same title. Here's a copy of his tome, which was signed by the "Sultan of Swat" and Inscribed to Herbert Felson (9 out of 10). The book appears NRMT with a partial dust Jacket. Though we sold his brother's copy years ago, this remains a tough signed book as Ruth passed away the same year it was published.
