Complete August 8, 1916, issue of the Youngstown Vindicator featuring a young Babe Ruth as a member of the Boston Red Sox on page 10. The caption "Babe Ruth Shows Splendid Form Since 1916 Season Opened And Has Helped Boston Champions" appears above his image. The newspaper has a beautiful appearance despite several small edge tears and toning along the perimeter. This represents a relatively affordable opportunity to acquire an attractive piece featuring Ruth during his time with the Red Sox. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
