Description
1941 Babe Ruth Signed Check to His Wife Claire, PSA/DNA Authentic Auto. Several factors set this example apart from (and above) the vast majority of Ruth checks. First, six years to the day after the Babe was traded by the New York Yankees to the Boston Braves, he filled out and signed this gorgeous personal check in bold fountain pen ink. Second, the check itself is the most desirable style, with Ruth's name printed in bold font at the left edge. Third, the punch coding and bank stamping do not infringe upon the Babe's autograph, and there are no creases, tears or stains to the check. Fourth, the check is payable for the tidy sum of $1,000 even. And finally, by listing "Claire Ruth" as the payee, it amounts to a second Ruth autograph of sorts. Encapsulated by PSA/DNA, Authentic Auto.Auction Info
