Classic vintage Acme wire photo issued in 1948 of the Babe in 1924 signing a baseball. Photo has four small pieces of tape clinging to its edges and contains extremely slight and difficult to see creasing. The attached wire text on the back states "The Bambino In His Prime. New York: The Great Babe Ruth Pauses To Autograph A Baseball During The 1924 Season, Three Years Before He Set The Home Run Record Of 60 As A Member Of The New York Yankees. (This Picture Is Serviced In Connection With Babe Ruth's Illness And Possible Death.) 8-11-48." The great man would pass away just five days after this wire photo was released.
