(LOT 48)
Babe Ruth & Christy Walsh Signed Check PSA/DNA Authentic

DUAL-SIGNED RUTH CHECK!!! Christy Walsh is considered the first sports agent, and who better to anchor your cavalcade of clients than the most recognizable athlete on the planet, George Herman "Babe" Ruth. Christy Walsh was more to Babe Ruth than just a sports agent; he was also a confidant and friend. As his agent, Walsh managed The Babe's career from negotiations with the New York Yankees to his personal appearances to the renowned Tour of Japan and even his personal finances. Presented here is a PSA Authentic encased signed check from the Bambino and Walsh, adding $2,000 to Ruth's Trust Fund.

Written from his "Bowery and East River National Bank" account on "June 10, 1931", this check #16 is signed at the bottom by "George Herman Ruth" and "Christy Walsh", each in black fountain pen. The reverse reveals that this check is "To increase principal of Trust Fund of Geo. H. Ruth". This is an incredible Babe Ruth signed check for the autographed check collector or Babe Ruth sycophant. By June 10th, Babe Ruth was batting .398 and finishing his 1931 season with a .373 average, 46 home runs and 162 RBIs, finishing 5th in AL MVP voting.
