After the 1937 season Joe DiMaggio was being presented with an award for his monster season as the heir to the Yankees dynasty. At the event was the most famous of all Yankees, Babe Ruth who is seen here shaking hands with DiMaggio and wishing him luck on his career. DiMaggio, as it was noted on the paper caption, was gunning for Ruth's home run record! A cool image in great shape, this is the earliest image of the dup together we have ever seen! Issued by the International News and stamped on the back and with a full paper caption as well, the photo presents well with note to a few light creases at the corners.
