Me too, I forgot I had this one below. One of the cooler movie cards I have seen of him. The size is 5 x 7 on card stock. I was surprised it didn't go for more when I paid up for it not that long ago.
But they are two different movies. My understanding is that a Babe Comes Home movie has never surfaced whereas Babe in Headin' Home movies whereabouts are known. Not that it matters a lot.

Some really nice items here guys, a Ruth niche of collecting. Here`s a few pieces accumulated through the years. 1st one, an 8 X 10 type 1 photo from the movie "Headin Home". The next 2, cool ticket shaped like a ball for obvious reasons and an antique leather suitcase with a hand painted advertisement both for "Babe Comes Home". Leon that large shot of the Babe is awesome. Remember when it came up and how nice it was !
