Bambino Baseball Game. Chicago: Johnson Store Equipment Co., ca. 1933. Tin litho game sold at the World Fair in Chicago, this game was made using Babe Ruth's name and the company responsible surprisingly was not sued at the time for this use (they were not affiliated with Babe Ruth other than producing this game). Includes original score sheet pad (one page used), mini baseball, baseball stand, and bat. Missing small figurine markers. 12 x 14î. Some small areas of oxidation, light soiling. Good.
