Description

Incredible oversized Ruth portrait that once hung in the Louisville Slugger office—graded GEM MINT 10 by PSA/DNA

Amazing oversized glossy 11.25 x 14 photo of the stylish Ruth with slicked-back hair and a wide-lapeled suit, clutching a cigar in his right hand, beautifully signed in bold fountain pen, "With best wishes, From Babe Ruth." This remarkable photograph once hung in the Louisville Slugger office. In very good to excellent condition, with a prominent vertical crease to the left side (passing from the bottom edge through his lapel). Accompanied by a full letter of grading and authenticity from PSA/DNA, assigning a perfect "GEM MINT 10" grade to Ruth's fantastic autograph. A superlative example, very rarely seen in such a large size with such a bold, GEM MINT signature. The Bambino was baseball's premier larger-than-life figure, and this exceptional oversized portrait perfectly captures his essence.
