Check signed by the ''The Great Bambino'', Babe Ruth, dated 28 October 1946. Ruth signs his legal name ''GH Ruth'' in black ink on the signature line and handwrites the entire check, payable to Jay B. Starkey for $6.46. Payment is seemingly for taxes owed on Florida real estate, as evidenced by notes on verso. ''BABE RUTH'' is printed on left side of check. Measures 8.5'' x 3.25''. Discreet cancellation holes not affecting signature. Tape from original matting on edges and some age toning, in overall very good condition.
