Presented is a unique Babe Ruth signed display piece that features not only Ruth's signature, but those of pitchers Jack Warhop, who served up Ruth's first career home run on May 6, 1915, at the Polo Grounds, and Tom Zachary, who surrendered Ruth's then record-setting 60th home run in 1927. Ruth's signature, beautifully scripted in blue fountain pen (grading 9/10), appears on his 1932 "Who's Who in Baseball" player page. The signatures of both Warhop (died in 1960) and Zachary (died in 1969) each appear individually on separate unlined index cards, with the signatures averaging 8/10. The "Who's Who" page (8.25x10.5") displays light foxing and is otherwise in apparent Excellent condition. Each index card (5x3") is housed in a glassine envelope, upon which is written biographical data; otherwise, each card is in apparent Excellent to Mint condition. Matted and framed to total dimensions of 16x19.5 inches. Full LOA from JSA. Please Note: The size and/or weight of this lot will necessitate an increased shipping charge.
