This thread is right up my alley. Here is a Type 1 photo from 1915. It was taken at the end of the season at the Polo Grounds. There is a partial Fatima sign on the right.

Type 1. Year uncertain; it's somewhere 1915-19; PSA couldn't pinpoint beyond that. Could be a rookie image but not certain.

1914, Ruth on the mound at Fenway for his second game in the Majors. The earliest, and only 1914 original, Ruth Red Sox photo known to exist.

Featured in the June 2017 SABR newsletter:

I know that photo.. very very nice. Lots going on.. any story behind it?

Here is a single shot of Ruth in 1915 spring training(first known single type 1 shot of Ruth in Red Sox uni)and group shot with the babe sticking out as usual. I’ll try to upload with better/clear scans later.

Seems like the Babe always had a knack for standing out in group shots - even in the early days.

As far as I am concerned, this thread is the cream of the crop in the world of baseball photos and cards. Creme de la creme as they say. All of you guys holding all these items have baseball history of the highest order in their finger tips. Just amazing museum pieces. All of them.

Kevin,

Those are two fantastic single Ruth rookie photos ... both on my “hit list” at one time. Very nice. One man's loss is another man's gain... or something to that effect.

Here is another Ruth Type 1 in my collection.

Kevin,

It was not by choice. HA! I love that others appreciate what I do too. It makes be feel normal

Here is a couple more that I believe are pretty special historically and 1 of a kinds(not seen others).

1) Game 1 of the 1918 WS where Babe Ruth was a pitcher and won(masterpiece 1-0).. It also marks the "first time" the star spangled banner was played at a game. The historical significance/content is off the charts.

http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports...703-story.html



2) 1918 Rex Sox team. Of course the last time they won the WS with Ruth and the curse started just after. It is crystal clear and Ruth looks like a BA.

Pretty awesome photo . . . .but . . . it's a family photo and not an iconic shot of Babe as the greatest homerun hitter of all time. Might be a good investment but personally speaking I'd deploy $65,000 on other Ruth rarities/photos.

I'd have bid but all I could think was "Baztacula".

Kevin,

Those are two fantastic single Ruth rookie photos ... both on my “hit list” at one time. Very nice. One man's loss is another man's gain... or something to that effect.

Here is another Ruth Type 1 in my collection.



The clarity of this photo is amazing!

The wrist thing looks very cool; tape or a leather band?

Great 1916 Red Sox team shot with Ruth in the current LOTG by the way...
