1935 Babe Ruth Original Charles Conlon Film Negative

<p><span style="background: white none repeat scroll 0% 0%; font-size: 10pt; font-family: Verdana; color: #333333;">Original film negative, capturing Babe Ruth as a member of the Boston Braves, produced by renowned baseball photographer Charles Conlon. The photo pictures Ruth at the plate in his follow-through swing during pregame batting practice. Ruth&rsquo;s name and team affiliation are written along the top border. Accompanied by its original paper sleeve that has &ldquo;Babe Ruth/Boston Nat/Batting&rdquo; written in blue fountain pen on the front. Although neither Conlon&rsquo;s name nor stamp appear on the negative or sleeve, the handwriting on the sleeve is unmistakably that of Conlon. (Conlon reused the sleeve, as another player&rsquo;s name and team affiliation are crossed out on the reverse.) 1935 was Ruth&rsquo;s final season in baseball and the only year he played with the Boston Braves. The negative (3.75x4.75&rdquo;) remains in Excellent condition. Culled from the legendary Brown Brothers Photo Archive. </span></p>
