Two (2) 1936 Photos Of Babe Ruth Golfing

The Great Bambino, Sultan of Swat, the Caliph of Clout, Babe Ruth is depicted in two original 1936 wire photos with a golf club in hand in this lot. Dated on the verso, as common of original wire photos, the post-swing bears February 6, 1936. Ruth's most ardent of fans understand that that is stamped his birthday during his first year of retirement from baseball. Also common in a time before graphic design, these photos that were used by the media for publication include hand-performed outlines and pencil/ink markings to enhance The Babe's contrast. Few figures in the world of sport have left more of a lasting impact on its history than that of the legend of Babe Ruth. These are sectioned off to include just that of Ruth, as shown in the accompanying lot photos. T3 1/2" x 10"
