A baby Babe swinging the lumber before he leveled a curse on the people of Boston. Vintage Ruth Red Sox photos are super-tough, and this is a beauty, restored with museum quality tape on verso and appearing EX. Light signature behind the Babe's knees is probably secretarial, but could be the real deal. We can't be 100% sure on that, but with a photo like this you can't lose either way.
