In 1980 the world of sports memorabilia and baseball cards was just getting a foot hold, but one man was way ahead of the curve. Love him or hate him, Barry Halper was a force in the early days of collecting and this early photograph shows his prized Babe Ruth memorabilia including bats, gloves, his uniform and a signed baseball group. From photographer Richard Pilling and offered here for the first time ever! One of the earliest images of Ruth memorabilia taking center stage in the world!
