His Called Shot
I have a Babe Ruth The Called Shot tankard with valuation certificate and booklet numbered E0806 does anyone know its value
On October 1, 1932 Babe Ruth hit his "Called Shot" home run against the Chicago Cubs in game 3 of the World Series.
Young billionaire chuck bass owns the ball. It is in a draw in his Empire Hotel suite in NYC. Cooperstown has authenticated the ball and made mr Bass an offer, but he has refused to date. The ball has been displayed once at The Empire in July of 2011 from the first through the fourth.

Babe Ruth called shot BaseballThis baseball does not exist and if someone suddenly claims to have it there would be no way of proving that the baseball was from the 1932 "Babe Ruth's called shot" World Series game In fact baseball historians debate to this day if the "called Shot" event ever happened. The baseball would have to be accompanied with proper provenance A letter from a player, team, or League official would be acceptable. A letter from a fan at the game would not hold much weight if any. A Babe Ruth's 1933 All Star Game home run ball sold for $805,000. (The "called shot" baseball would have put this ball to shame)
People don't know if he did. Some said he did and some said he didn't. Peple who saw him called his shot are dead
The Baseball Home of Fame has help perpetuate the so called Called Shot by Babe Ruth by having a painting by Robert Thomas clearly showing the Babe making the called shot. The homer by Ruth remains disputed as Babe Ruth refused to either confirm it discredit it. Reliable sources such as Lou Gehrig who was on deck said the homer definitely a called homer. The Cub's pitcher at the time, Charlie Root, adamantly says it was not.
October 1, 1932 in Game 3 of the World Series.
