Rotogravure pictorial supplement issued by the Chicago Sunday Tribune on August 8, 1920, featuring Babe Ruth in a swing-through pose on the front cover during his first season with the New York Yankees. The 16-page paper (12 x 18 inches) has several condition issues including tears, edge chipping, and toning. Flaws aside, the newspaper has a very presentable appearance and represents a relatively affordable opportunity to acquire an attractive piece of Ruth during his first season with the Yankees. The size/weight of this item requires that there will be an additional shipping charge for this lot.
