April 14th, 2010 Summer Games Auction (#27)

Lot #12:

6/15/48 Babe Ruth Signed “To my good friend" 8x10 Photo (JSA)

This is the second of two great Babe Ruth action photos given by Ruth to his friends. This photo itself is in excellent condition with the border trimmed very nicely. It reads “To my good friend Merla Mills from Babe Ruth 6/15/48.” The Babe’s writing on this photo appears to be done in blue fountain pen with the signature itself rating a strong 9 and the inscription and date of a slightly lesser grade.
