Babe Ruth scrapbook volume 10 part 01
Date1934
DescriptionThis volume covers mainly the year 1934. It opens with a hand-written request from a fan for an autograph. The majority of the work is centered on Ruth considering retirement and what he would do. Photos include Ruth on vacation in Honolulu with his wife, Claire, and her daughter, Julia. There is also an advertisement called "Babe Ruth on the Air!' Articles discuss the contract Ruth signed for the 1934 season. This is a collection of Ruth in the latter days of his playing days. The Yankees sold him to the Boston Braves. The Braves use him, but they are a dismal team.
