Original Type I photograph capturing Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig during the famous “Bustin’ Babes and Larrupin’ Lou’s” barnstorming tour. Each player is wearing his respective tour uniform as they pose together for the camera. Two Brown Brothers credit stamps appear on the reverse, along a handwritten notation that reads "Babe Ruth + Gehrig barnstorming after 1927 series." The “Bustin’ Babes and Larrupin’ Lou’s” barnstorming tour, which traversed the country in both 1927 and 1928, was one of the most successful postseason tours in baseball history, as thousands flocked to the ballpark at each venue to see the two greatest sluggers in the game. Ruth and Gehrig were the only two players on the tour who traveled. Each of their respective teams was rostered with local talent, which only added to the “grassroots” spirit of the tour. Most of the games were never completed because the fans often rushed the field in the later innings to personally meet their idols. Souvenirs from the tour are scarce today and photos have always been popular mementos with collectors. The photo (9.5x7.5”) displays rough borders and a few light creases. In Very Good condition overall. Culled from the legendary Brown Brothers Photo Archive. PSA encapsulated as Type I Authentic.
