We are pleased to present here an extremely high-quality single signed Babe Ruth baseball from the height of his reign as the game’s most dominant slugger. This Spalding Junior League (3/4 size) ball hosts a gorgeous and large "Babe Ruth" signature emblazoned across its sweet spot. The rich black fountain pen script appears fresh and vibrant. The Bambino's use of quotes confirms a late 1920’s vintage as he largely abandoned that practice after 1928. Minor soiling and surface wear do not significantly reduce the excellent overall display quality of this transcendent piece of Americana. Full LOA from PSA/DNA (Auto.: 7 Ball: 3 Overall: 5).
