Published in 1948 this copy of "The Babe Ruth Story" is a first edition. The book has been signed on the inside cover page "To Bill Jr From Babe Ruth". The blue ink signature rates a strong 8, and the book has also been signed by co-author Bob Considine and his signature rates an 8. The book is in good condition with a lot of wear and creasing to the cover. The cover has been separated from the book and there is still evidence of some tape that had been used to reattach it. The book is the only authorized story of the life of Babe Ruth.
