Add to basketThis is a vintage baseball scrapbook that documents the 1935 MLB season of the Boston Braves with multiple BABE RUTH mentions in both headlines and box scores. 1935 was Ruth's last season - he played only 28 games, with his final at-bat coming on May 30, 1935. Headlines include "Babe Hero," "Babe Ruth Hits Trio of Homers - His Third Longest Drive Ever Delivered in Pittsburg," "Ruth Fans Three Times," "Babe Homers, Makes Two Great Catches," and "Paul Waner Robs Ruth." Fifty-four of the pages contain one or more newspaper clippings. The scrapbook was nicely put together by a 6th grader named "Jack" - many of the clippings were neatly folded so that they're easily able to be folded in/out to reveal the entire clipping/headline. There are nine pages of handwritten box scores in pencil of (presumably) regional Little League baseball teams. Aside from Ruth, other Hall of Fame players mentioned in the clippings include LOU GEHRIG, Jimmie Foxx, Dizzy Dean, Hank Greenberg, Al Simmons, Joe Cronin, Mel Ott, Rabbit Maranville, Bill Dickey, Joe Medwick, Lefty Gomez, Bill Terry, Arky Vaughan, Paul Waner, Red Ruffing, Ernie Lombardi, Frankie Frisch, Chuck Klein, Earl Averill.and possibly others.
