I Had A Better Year Than He Did (1933)
Babe Ruth poses with former President Herbert Hoover at the Stanford-USC football game in Los Angeles. Harkens us back to his famed comment after a contract negotiation. Ruth stated "I know, but I had a better year than Hoover." which was his reported retort when a reporter objected that the salary Ruth was demanding ($80,000) was more than that of President Herbert Hoover's ($75,000). 7”x9''. EX+. Original paper caption on verso.
