The inside scoop on the life of Babe Ruth makes this a fascinating read. Occupation "Baseball Player" (naturally), he made $77,969 from the "New York American League Baseball Club", $5, 231.77 from World Series money from Commissioner Landis". $10, 053.35 from the Christy Walsh Syndicate for his likeness and use of his name for everything you see on the memorabilia market today, including the Babe Ruth Game by McLoughlin which he itemized best of all. He deducted $15,000 for a "secretary", which sounds pricey. A few clips, otherwise EX. From the estate of Joe Bihler, the right hand man of Babe Ruth's agent Christy Walsh and in turn Ruth himself.
