These are amazing! Two are identical and feature this "Hero of American Youth." Both are EX, no chips whatsoever. They date circa 1948 from his illness and death and we have only seen a couple in all these years, each measures 9.5" in diameter. The third is a "Babe Ruth League Member" plaque, only the second we have seen. It measures 12.25x7.75" and has a small chip on the back, otherwise in EX-MT condition. Artist-signed by Gesch, the quality of this sculpted work now in plaster is fabulous. The three framed with the "League" plaque in the middle would look amazing.
