Description
1927 "Babe Comes Home" Broadside. Enormously rare lobby advertising broadside dates to the greatest season of Ruth's baseball career, one in which he clubbed sixty home runs while leading the Yankees to the World Championship. While this exemplar has seen extensive restoration to the borders, graphics and typeface, and was cleaned, pressed and rebacked for stability. However, its stunning "Art Deco meets government propaganda" graphics, shadow imagery, prominence of Ruth's image looking to the heavens, display appeal and ultra scarcity make the restoration easier to accept. Measures 14x22".Auction Info
