The thing that caught my eye 1st is that for 2 mill you get 2.5 Completely Crappy Bathrooms -

Who still has a house these days that doesn't have at least 1 good shower?

Looks like Dempsey and Ruth in the photo on the wall bottom right in the birthday cake shot. Ruth trained in Artie McGovern's gym, as did Dempsey. Here are the Babe and Artie sparring on the roof of the gym; part of a mid-1920s Mutoscope reel

Gehrig too
