Super example of the important Babe Ruth autobiography "The Babe Ruth Story" as told to Bob Considine offered here in Ex-Mt condition garnished by a stunning 9/10 Babe Ruth signature carefully applied to the title page. Book pages and 49 different black-and-white plates throughout the first edition 254-page 5 3/4-by-8 1/2-inch book are in superb shape; the dust jacket designed to cushion the dual blows of eager handling and the travails of Father Time seemingly performed admirably in that regard and now winds up probably described as in Fair condition.
