  • Babe Ruth Bio
  • Articles

George Herman 'Babe' Ruth was one of the best players of all time.  Babe was more than a ball player, a larger than life figure that to this day remains a cult hero among sports fans. His stats are beyond remarkable, with 714 Home Runs including a 60 Home Run season and numerous batting and home run titles.  Ruth was also one of the inaugural members elected to the Baseball Hall of Fame.  His legend lives on today as his cards remain some of the most sought after issues among all vintage players.  We continue to view nearly any Ruth card as an excellent long term investment for vintage collectors.
