Vintage 8" by 10" black and white photo features a classic image of Babe Ruth demonstrating his prolific swing. The piece also demonstrates Ruth's unequalled skill at administering his autograph with grace and precision. Perfectly placed in the upper left corner Ruth has added his pristine 9-10/10 dark green ink inscription "To Ralph Houseman Jr. From Babe Ruth". The boldness of Ruth's writing is such that it seemingly leaps from the photo with an almost three-dimensional effect. The photo itself shows no significant structural faults while the inscription has been graded MINT 9 by PSA/DNA. An aesthetically marvelous Ruth signed photo with investment quality features.
Full LOA from PSA/DNA with the AUTOGRAPH graded a MINT 9.
