Simply put, there are no Major League players who meant as much to the game, to its fans and to American culture than did Babe Ruth. Resultantly, the affable slugger’s autograph transcends all other endorsements. This Ruth cut signature is as bold as its author’s demeanor and is a certain cornerstone to any serious collection. Matted to dimensions of 10x8”, Ruth’s regal penmanship has been executed in black-ink steel tip fountain pen on a 3x1” sheet (visible image area). For the sake of accuracy, we note that minor ink migration affects the latter portion of “Babe” and the start of the upper case “R,” yet the scripting still maintains (“7-8”) strength and clarity. Quotation marks around “Babe” date the signature to pre-1928. Full photo LOA from JSA.
