1915 High Grade World Series Program - Boston Red Sox vs. Philadelphia A's Babe Ruth's First World Series Appearance Rare Program Unscored

Babe Ruth entered the big leagues at the tender age of 19 and baseball would never be the same. While he only registered four at-bats in 1914, The Bambino played in 42 contests in 1915.

Ruth's four home runs and .315 average helped elevate the Red Sox to the 1915 Fall Classic. While Ruth's exploits weren't quite enough to make him a starter, he did get his first taste of World Series action in '15.

This program was sold at the 1915 World Series and includes two team photos of the Red Sox, including a relatively in-shape Bambino.

We estimate the grade of this publication as EX, only because there is central crease which does run through the entire publication. We would classify the crease as light.

Worth special mention is the fact that the program is not scored.
