Perhaps the greatest player in the history of the game, George Herman “Babe” Ruth (1895–1948) was among the five charter inductees into the Baseball Hall of Fame. Ruth distinguished himself as the first player to hit more than 30, 40, and 50 home runs in one season, and his record of 60 home runs in the 1927 season remained unbroken for some 34 years. Bank check, 8.5 x 3.25, filled out and signed by Ruth as “G. H. Ruth” and similarly endorsed on the reverse, payable to cash for $50.00, June 30, 1937. Accompanied by a PSA/DNA letter of authenticity. Usual bank stamp and punch cancellations and a single small spindle hole, all well away from the signatures, otherwise very fine, crisp, fresh condition. A most attractive example whose double signature lends it a scarcity and desirability well above the norm! LOA Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and R&R COA.
