Spring 2019 Premium Auction Closing May 11
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 5/12/2019
Hall of Famer. A splendid, 11-1/2" x 13-3/4" premium featuring the period's biggest star is presented. Relatively little has yet been learned about the obscure premium issue known as "Blum’s Baseball Bulletin." The production’s large paper photos, with narrative, saw very limited distribution in the early 1930s, and the release's full checklist has not yet been confirmed. This Babe Ruth premium displays nicely shaped corners. Its central image is extraordinary, and the only physical discrepancy of note is a small fault at the lower right edge. An outstanding "find" for the Ruth enthusiast, revealing Excellent to Mint presentation quality.
