Guyana 1995 Babe Ruth Centennial Full Souvenir Sheet
This is a full commemorative philatelic souvenir sheet featuring twelve individual postage stamps issued by Guyana to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of baseball legend Babe Ruth (1895-1995). Each stamp has a denomination of $65 (Guyanese Dollars) and depicts various black-and-white historical photographs of Ruth in different poses, including batting, portraits in uniform, and candid shots. The sheet is printed on semi-glossy paper with standard perforations between the stamps. The top margin features the logo for the '100th Anniversary' and the Major League Baseball (MLB) logo, indicating an official licensing partnership. The bottom margin contains the text: 'Commemorating the 100th Anniversary of Babe Ruth's Birth - Feb. 6, 1895 - Baltimore, Md.' The overall color palette is a sepia-toned monochrome. In terms of condition, the sheet appears to be in mint, uncancelled (MNH) state, though there is a noticeable crease or slight bending visible in the upper left corner and minor edge wear along the top margin. The craftsmanship is typical of 1990s international commemorative issues intended for the collector market.
