My Grandfather Jay Dee Sowash took me to the game. Babe Ruth was signing autographs, but only on official league baseballs. I was fortunate enough to get that autograph, which I still possess. I also have the autographs of many of the Yankees and Browns who were playing that day. I also have a Xeroxed copy of the Post Dispatch reporting on the event. It is something that I have always treasured. I was present at that game as a 9 year old boy. My Grandfather Jay Dee Sowash took me to the game.

That is a public domain photo from the Library of Congress. We did not have a photo from that day, but wanted to have an image of Babe Ruth. I have indicated the source now in the article. Sorry for the confusion. Good point — I should have been more clear. That is a public domain photo from the Library of Congress.
