A terrific relic that once adorned the finger of the Bambino himself, presented here is a monogrammed "GR" (George Ruth, Babe's legal name) brass ring that was personally owned and used by Ruth. Acquired direct from the "Memory Lane" collection of New York broadcasting legend Joe Franklin, who notes in his detailed Letter of Authenticity that he acquired the piece from Claire Ruth in 1963. Impressive! Accompanied by a full Letter of Provenance from Joe Franklin and the Memory Lane Collection.
