Signed Babe Ruth Photograph featuring 'My 59th Homer Run'

This item is a framed black and white photographic print depicting legendary baseball player Babe Ruth in action, likely hitting a home run. The photograph captures a dynamic moment on a baseball field, showing Ruth in mid-swing with a bat, while other players and a portion of the stadium structure and spectators are visible in the background. The image is presented in a sepia-toned or aged black and white aesthetic, typical of early 20th-century photography. A key feature of this item is the handwritten inscription on the photograph's surface, which reads, "My 59th Homer Run Sincerely Babe Ruth." This inscription, if authenticated, indicates a personal signing by Babe Ruth himself, commemorating a significant milestone in his career. The photograph is housed within a simple wooden frame, featuring a light to medium brown tone with visible wood grain, suggesting a natural wood or wood-look material. The frame has a classic, unadorned profile. The overall condition of the photograph appears good, with no immediately visible major tears or creases, although some minor discoloration or fading consistent with age might be present, particularly given the sepia tone. The signature itself appears clear and legible. The frame shows some minor wear, potentially scuffs, but overall presents the photograph well. This item combines historical sports photography with a highly collectible autograph, dating it most likely to the early to mid-20th century, specifically around the time of Ruth's prolific home run seasons.
