Description

The ‘Bambino’ takes in the Army-Notre Dame game at Yankee Stadium

Program cover from the Army/Notre Dame football game held at Yankee Stadium on November 26, 1932, 8.5 x 11, signed on the cover in fountain pen “Babe Ruth.” A collector’s notations to the cover reads, “He wrote this at a football game,” and “Babe Ruth signed at game,” and also writing the score of the game across the front. Notre Dame upset Army that year by a score of 21 to 0. In very good to fine condition, with notations as mentioned (one directly under signature), slight ink brush through first letter of signature, and some light creasing and handling wear. Accompanied by an unsigned original AP photo of Ruth signing autographs for troops ten years later. A visually appealing item featuring the greatest baseball player of all time taking in the game of the year at the historic Yankees Stadium, just one month after his famous ‘called shot.’ Pre-certified Steve Grad/PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
