1947 Photograph of Babe Ruth as he was presented with a new contraption that would make it so he could watch baseball games from the comfort of his home, a television set! Babe would only be available to use it for a year as he would pass away about a year later! Issued by Acme and stamped on the back with most of a paper caption, this is a touching image.
