Honoring the "Sultan of Swat"
and
His Remarkable Baseball Career
|
| |
 |
The left side of the receiver captures Babe Ruth swinging the bat, framed
by the baseball diamond which was his kingdom. His name is featured along with the
title, "The Sultan of Swat." Elaborate nickel scrollwork surrounds the
images on both sides.
|
 |
Right side of the receiver features the Babe admiring a towering home
run, plus the Babe tipping his cap to his legion of fans. Babe loved baseball and
his life story says, "Baseball was, is and always will be to me the best game in the
world," and this quote is captured on the Tribute.
|
 |
The Tribute's walnut stocks are laser-carved on both sides with an image
of Babe holding a bat on the shoulder stock, and a baseball flying past the name of Babe
Ruth on the forearm. The barrel bands, lever, sight and end cap are all polished and
decorated in 24-karat gold. The lever is etched with a decorative nickel scroll to
complement the artwork on the receiver.

America Remembers invites you to join us in celebrating
the "Golden Age of American Baseball" with the Babe Ruth Tribute, a genuine
working Model 94 rifle in .30-30 caliber. Introduced the year before the birth of
the "Bambino" in 1895, the Winchester is decorated and embellished in 24-karat
gold and nickel by craftsmen commissioned specifically by America Remembers to capture the
Hall of Famer doing what he did best - thrilling his fans with mammoth home runs.
Officially authorized by the family of Babe Ruth, the Tribute salutes the slugger's
legendary career. During the winters of his remarkable career, Babe Ruth traveled
south to hunt and fish. He once stalked a wild turkey in Georgia for seven hours
before he could get the perfect shot! He enjoyed hunting game and fowl, and hunted
often with teammates and sportswriters.
