There is only one Babe Ruth, and here he is on the 1948 Leaf #3 card (2.25x2.88"), the last major card issued for him. 1948 was the year Ruth passed away. Card shows Ruth in his New York Yankee hat. Back of card has bio. Babe Ruth retired during the 1935 season, and so this card, issued 13 years after his final season, was in the nature of a farewell to him. PSA graded 3.
