Original one-of-a-kind, from-the-camera glass plate negative depicts Babe Ruth in a somewhat unusual setting - seated on the bench instead of clubbing one of his massive homers. Of course, it's likely that the Bambino was catching a breather in this vintage 4x5" shot, as he didn't miss too many games during his tenure with the New York Yankees. There's a chip to the bottom corner of the negative but it does not at all impact the central image of the Pinstripes legend.
