A timeless original photograph signed by three of the most feared sluggers in baseball history, Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx, taken during the legendary 1934 All-American Tour of Japan. Organized in the fall of 1934, the tour sent a squad of Major League stars across the Pacific to play before enormous crowds, helping to ignite the passion for baseball that endures in Japan to this day. It was also one of the final chapters of Ruth's playing career.
The sepia-toned image presents the three titans standing side by side on the field in their All-American tour uniforms, each sleeve bearing the distinctive "US" shield patch, with striped stirrups and spikes. Gehrig stands at left with a hand on his hip, Foxx leans on his bat in the center, and Ruth stands at right with a bat resting on his shoulder. Each player has signed in fountain pen across his own figure, a rare and highly appealing feature, and all three signatures present boldly and legibly. A Japanese photographic studio's blind-stamp appears at lower right, a telling indication of the photograph's origin during the tour itself.
The reverse is blank, with toning and light staining consistent with age. PSA/DNA has authenticated all three signatures and encapsulated the photograph.
Photographs signed by Ruth and Gehrig together are always in high demand, and the addition of Foxx, combined with the historic Japan tour context, makes this a truly exceptional and historic multi-signed piece.
