This lot features a Babe Ruth 1934 Quaker Oats Premium Photo accompanied by its original mailing envelope. In 1934, members of Quaker Oats’ Babe Ruth Baseball Club received an 8? x 10? photograph. The picture features Ruth’s trademark swing along with a replica signature from Ruth, inscribed, ‘To My Pal.’ The picture had a white border with this imprint on the bottom: “Presented to Members of Babe Ruth Baseball Club by the Quaker Oats Company, makers of Quaker Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice”. The photograph is just one of many Ruth items for Quaker Oats. He appeared on several other collectibles and his relationship with the company is apparent. Measuring 8x10, this mid-1930s photo remains in remarkable condition with nice gloss and a sharp image. Featuring a facsimile Ruth signature this classic batting pose premium is printed on the border in full with “Presented to Members of Babe Ruth Base Ball Club By Quaker Oats Company, Makers of Quaker Puffed Wheat and Puffed Rice”. Exceedingly rare and coveted 87 year old Babe Ruth collectible.
