A striking original Type I photograph capturing Babe Ruth in 1928 at the Citizens Military Training Camps, posed confidently while holding his iconic bat next to F. Trubee Davidson and Colonel Charles Burton Robbins, both Assistant Secretaries of War. This image offers a rare glimpse of Ruth outside the baseball diamond, highlighting the legendary slugger in a unique setting during the height of his career with the New York Yankees.

Authenticated by PSA/DNA as a Type I, confirming it was developed from the original negative within approximately two years of when it was taken. The photograph exhibits exceptional tonal range and clarity, with Ruth’s commanding presence and unmistakable charisma perfectly preserved.

Images of Babe Ruth from 1928 — particularly in non-game, historically contextual settings — are scarce, making this photograph an extraordinary addition for collectors of Ruth memorabilia, vintage sports photography, or early 20th-century Americana.

A museum-quality, historically significant Type I original, this photograph captures Babe Ruth’s larger-than-life presence and remains a centerpiece-worthy artifact for any elite baseball or sports photography collection.
