When trying to attract collectors to your inaugural offering, it's never a bad idea to slip in a tribute card of the game's greatest player Babe Ruth, made even more popular by his passing in August of the same year. Card #3 (of course) of the 1948 Leaf set is presented in PSA 8 condition and surpassed by a mere 5 examples. A tremendous portrait of the famed slugger greets the observer, surrounded by a radiant red backdrop that is nothing short of captivating. The complementing deep blue color of the cap and whiteness of the borders only magnify the allure and force attention on the excellent centering and four perfect points. It's rare to find a specimen with such pack-fresh qualities as this significant specimen!
