Graded VG 3 by SGC. Hall of Famer. This hugely desirable "Holding Ball" portrayal of Babe Ruth shows casual mirth in the slugger's face as well as the confidence in his posture. A much sought-after, classic entry in American Caramel's "Series of 120," the item delivers uniquely evocative visual power. Inoffensive corner wear can be discerned at this generally clean example's outermost aspects, and faint, generalized toning is seen on the boldly printed back, but these elements of technicality do not impinge upon the presentation of the piece's delightful illustration. An indisputable period highlight, in Very Good condition.
