Shortly after the tragic death of his first wife in a house fire (they had been separated), Babe Ruth married actress and model Claire Hodgson in April, 1929. The day they married was the day before the Yankees’ opening game against the Boston Red Sox. On his first at-bat, Babe hit a home run out of Yankee Stadium for his new bride. You can just imagine the story behind this remarkable Paul Thompson’s photo. On the reverse side are pencil photo or editor’s notes reading “’Babe’ Ruth’s bride cheering on ‘The Home-Run King at Polo Grounds, N.Y. There’s also a Paul Thompson “For Your Use Only” hand-stamp on the rear. There’s a slight crease at the upper left corner. The ready-to-frame NRMT 7” x 8 ½” photo showing a proud bride is a photo you’ll be proud to own.
