    $300 Cash Reward for Babe Ruth Photomatch.

    The ring in the photos belonged to Babe Ruth between between 1914 and 1929. He wore a few different rings during this time frame.

    I have done a very short search (nothing on the internet) and came across something close in a book, but unfortunately the photo was too far away. I am actually fairly certain that it was the ring, because I never saw another photo with the double diamond style. I also did not see him wearing a ring while in uniform, so that might narrow the search down some.

    The first person who emails me something conclusive gets the reward!

    Good Luck and Thanks for all your help!

    I've found about 10-12 decent ones at work with my buddy... this may be the best so far.

    Couldn't post the picture, but here's the link to a shot. One probably needs to be zoomed in on, but I'm not sure how to do that.

    Question Re: $300 Cash Reward for Babe Ruth Photomatch.

    What is the size, are you certain it isn't his wife's ring?

    This image is from 1923 and to me, that looks like it could be the ring on her finger.

    These are from Getty, so higher resolution images would be available.
