Baseball icon Babe Ruth played some exhibition games and signed a lot of autographs, including a ball for a young Spokane boy who kept it in the family.
ShareBaseball icon Babe Ruth played some exhibition games in Spokane and Seattle in October of 1924. While he was here, he signed a lot of autographs, including a ball for a young Spokane boy who kept it in the family.
Grant Zahajko, the co-owner of Grant Zahajko Auctions, is now putting that baseball up for auction. He said he’s never seen a Ruth item quite like this.“About six months ago, they went to the safety deposit box to retrieve it and pulled this baseball out, and it looks like it was signed yesterday,” Zahajko said.
Zahajko explained that Ruth signed a lot of items over the years, but that he’s never seen a Babe ball that’s almost 100 years old in such pristine condition.
