This portrait card featuring a smiling Babe Ruth was issued in the same year as the "Sultan of Swat" earned himself the League Award, the equivalent of the MVP Award today. Maybe that smile (or is it a smirk?) was a telling sign of what Ruth knew was coming his way. The card itself presents as a solid EX to EX-MT example with only the requisite toning and touches to the two right corners as the only detractors. A nice artifact from Ruth's award winning season.
