    Classic
    .
    As Babe stepped to the plate, the Cubs’ bench was riding him mercilessly. Babe would yell and gesture back. With the count 2 balls and two strikes, Ruth seemed to point two fingers toward center field. Then he belted the next pitch deep in the center field seats.
    Nice Charles Root Jr. Superior Service Model glove. Glove appears to be a youth size but fits my hand perfectly. Web has a single tunnel loop, I've never heard of or seen the Mfg. (Superior Service)  I believe it was a small distributor for the actual Mfg. Montgomery Ward. This would make a welcome addition to your glove condition.
    The photos are an important part for you to judge for the actual description. Glove will be shipped 2 day priority mail upon receipt of payment.
