A Beautiful Babe Ruth Type 1 Photo!
My love of vintage Type 1 Photos is a relatively recent occurrence (late 2021 to early 2022) but it is a love that has grown strong and firmly wedged itself in my collecting heart. The newest addition to that collection was purchased from a dealer's website after a small discount and then sent to PSA to be re-slabbed as the photo was tilted and the holder was scratched.
While there was a wait to get it back, it was worth the trouble as it looks absolutely splendid in a fresh plastic tomb without its previous crooked ways. The photo itself hails from 1923 and features Hall of Famers Babe Ruth and John McGraw posing on the top steps of a dugout during a benefit game.
