Lot # 1386: 1934-1935 Quaker Oats Babe Ruth Premium Collection (10)

Quaker Oats made a wise choice in hiring Babe Ruth to endorse its breakfast cereal brand. During his playing days, Ruth was as big as it got, when it came to athletes that grabbed the public's attention. Here's your chance to make a wise choice, by laying claim to this 1934-1935 Quaker Oats Babe Ruth premium collection (10). Still active as a player at the time, Ruth leant his image and name to a wide array of redemption items issued by Quaker. Watch fob scorers, photographs and Ask Me trivia cards from this advertising campaign turn up regularly, but the items populating this handsome bundle are fairly tough to come by.

Featured are:

How to guide booklet set (4) averages Ex, with How to Knock Home Runs, How to Play Infield, How to Play Outfield, and How to Throw Curves;

Babe Ruth's Big Book of Baseball guide, Vg-Ex with a solid spine;
