This lot features a Babe Ruth single signed baseball signed on the sweet spot by "Sultan of Swat" in bold, black fountain pen. The Babe penned his signature boldly to this "mini" Spalding Junior League baseball. This ball is slightly smaller than a standard major league baseball. (Image provided for visual aid). The "Babe" remains the most sought-after autograph in baseball history and this one is one of the nicest ones you will ever lay eyes on. Mint Ruth balls fetch well into the six figures. Ruth completely dominated his sport more than any other athlete in history. He was actually a pitcher for the first 5 years of his career and actually won the the first of his 12 American League Home Run Titles with 11 HR's in 1918 while hitting part time on games that he pitched! Ruth began playing and hitting every day in 1920 and his HR total rocketed to 54 when other "Home Run Hitters" from the era would end the year in single digits. Important to note that there are no signature removals from this ball making a true Babe Ruth single signed baseball which are becoming exceedingly difficult to find. The Babe Ruth signature has been graded in NM-MT 8 condition by PSA/DNA while the ball itself has been graded a 4 for an overall grade of EX-MT 6. Extremely nice eye appeal on this beauty. Accompanied by PSA/DNA & Beckett Letters of Authenticity.
