First Edition Signed
Original wraps. Condition: Very Good. First Edition. 3 7/8 X 6 Inches. Original complete stapled (stab) booklet of 50 original 1934 contest entries for the Babe Ruth Spring Training Camp. Self-wraps as issued. Top coupon a bit rubbed and worn as it served as the cover. While these coupons are not too difficult to locate and generally sell for between $7.00 and $25.00, we have yet to find an auction record and/or current listing for and entire complete booklet! Prizes for the contest included Spalding Babe Ruth Fielder's Goles and autographed bats as well as a trip to Babe Ruth's Spring Training Camp.
First Edition. Some cloth staining; a very good copy in a chipped dust jacket; in a custom quarter-morocco clamshell box. The copy has been signed by Ruth, Bob Considine and others for presentation to the publisher 'on the occasion of Babe Ruth giving the manuscript of this book to the Yale University Library.' In return, a thin, sickly, dying Ruth received a citation in New Haven from the varsity baseball team captain, one George H.W. Bush. All books described as first editions are first printings unless otherwise noted.
