There is an Italian card issue that features this scene. Black bordered. I forget the name.
The item could be a publicity photo. Double weight stock and even a matte finish were not unusual for studio issued photos in the era.

Thanks Adam, now that you mention it the stock is a matte finish rather than any than a gloss stock.
Edited to say that all of the 1932 cards Jossetti and the italian one (I used to own one) feature Lloyd and Ruth looking at a bat. Last edited by pencil1974; 08-15-2015 at 03:17 PM. |

Babe Rued Left Hand?
What is going on with Ruth's left hand in the photo from the original poster? Messed up photo, or did he have some kind of injury at the time?

Looks like he has a cigar in his hand.

Babe Ruined With Cigar
Thanks...I now see that paper wrapped device of death. It certainly has made his hand appear gnarled and abused.

Its an odd thing all the way around. I know its period but seems to be a promo of some sort but Ruth and Lloyd just don't look happy around each other. Stark difference compared to the card. The other thing that struck me as odd is they blurred out the background every where except for the metal grate time thing beside Ruth. Why not blurry that as well?
