The Banished Babe & His Family

The Banished Babe & His Family

Taken shortly before the Babe was fined $5,000 and suspended from the Yankees indefinitely, for conduct unbecoming to a gentleman, both on and off the field...mostly the latter. The original paper caption continues, "Rumors have been heard that The Babe has only hit the high spots, during his spare time off the field. But the truth of these stories is not certain. Due to all the unwelcome publicity, Mrs. Ruth has left her home in the Bronx and gone to parts unknown, while The Babe, seems to be in disfavor with his team, the fans, and with Mrs. Ruth". Dated 8-31-25. International News Photo stamp. Minor discoloration and pencil markings on the back do not at all affect the spotless front surface, EX+. 6.5x8.5".
