ITPC FALL 2013 SPORTS MEMORABILIA AUCTION - 300 LOTS
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 10/5/2013
Manufactured by Esco (the Entertainment Statue Co.) of Canton, Ohio where the statue of Babe Ruth was made. The chalkware statue is a true pieces of art. The craftsmanship is evident, and the likeness is quite accurate. Seemingly to avoid paying royalties to the pop culture figures whose images they were using, they only did runs of 100 statues at a time for each design. The Ruth statue stands 18" in height and is in excellent condition. Ruth was made in 1987 and has the original manufacturer's/artist marking etched on the back of the base.
