Happy to add this type 1 of Ruth from his 1923 season with President Harding.
Back caption says "President sees Babe Ruth hit homer and Yankees defeat of Washington" Congratulating him after homerun between innings From the year of Ruth's highest batting average, OBP, Walks and MVP award. Plus, the Yankees first year in the stadium and first championship! Great piece for a Yankee and Ruth fan!

Warren Harding died August 2, 1923.................wonder what is date of photo?
I checked the 1923 Yankee box scores. Ruth didn't hit a HR on the road against Washington. He did hit 3 HR's at Yankee Stadium vs. Washington. He hit HR #2 on 4-24-23; HR #15 on 7-2-23; HR #16 on 7-3-23. With the bunting shown in the photo I would assume the photo was taken on July 2nd or July 3rd (Independence Day Yankee homestand). If so, it was one month before Harding's death. I did some more research. President Harding attended the Senators game on 4-24-1923 for the inaugural season at Yankee Stadium. The date of the photo is certainly April 24, 1923.....3 1/2 months before Harding's death.
