Terrific signed sepia photo of Babe Ruth in an iconic pose. The Babe can be seen in the follow-through stage of his swing, with his eyes gazing upward as if watching one of his 714 career home runs sail out of a ballpark. Ruth and his exploits need little introduction. He remains one of the most legendary figures in baseball and American pop culture at large, even 70 years after his death. The 3.5x5" photo has Ruth's signature at the top, which rates 7/10, and has a minor crease and stain on the right edge; it is otherwise EX. Comes with JSA LOA. Ruth was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1936 as a member of its inaugural class. He still holds the career record for slugging percentage and OPS. This beautiful photo with clean signature presents an aesthetically pleasing opportunity to own a piece of The Bambino's legacy.
