This rarity is a Type I photo of Babe Ruth pictured with person in Native American garb serving as "mascot" for Cleveland Indians. The verso contains a handwritten "Ruth" on back in pencil and no other markings, with the numbers "303960" at bottom of the 7x5" photo on front. While there is vintage wear on the edges with some creasing and a few minor paper loss spots near bottom left, the photo rates otherwise in VG-EX condition.
