Description
1940's Babe Ruth & Ed Lopat Signed Baseball -- Presents as a Ruth Single! Ed Lopat entered the Bigs with the ChiSox in 1944 and debuted in pinstripes in 1948--the year of Ruth's passing--so there's a pretty narrow window for this pairing. The baseball has lost its factory stamping over the passage of eight decades, but the Babe's sweet spot signature still presents at an impressive 6/10. Lopat's 8/10 autograph is nearly as far away from Ruth as it could possibly be, allowing for the iconic slugger to present as a single signed baseball. It's an exciting opportunity to own a ball that would be worth two or three times its likely sale price if not for the lone straggler joining the Babe. Full LOA from PSA/DNA.
