Babe Ruth

"It's hard to beat a person who never gives up."   Honorable words from a man who not only never gave up, he went above and beyond to succeed like no other sports figure in the history of baseball. George Herman Ruth Jr., better known as "Babe", had such a talent for the game that his teammate Joe Dugan once said, "To understand him you had to understand this: he wasn't human." Babe Ruth went on to become a legend of the game, playing seven seasons with the Boston Red Sox and fifteen with the New York Yankees. He created such a fan craze in New York that the new Yankee Stadium was appropriately called "the house that Ruth built". Babe became known not only for the powerful accuracy of his swing and his incredible home runs, but also his overall talent for the game and his versatility as an all-around player. Bill Dickey, a former teammate, once said, "He hits the ball harder and further than any man I ever saw." Babe Ruth wasn't just a ball player, he was an international star, a worldwide celebrity, the likes of which baseball has never seen since. LISTEN TO AUDIO

Krone commemorates the legacy of this amazing athlete with the Limited Edition Babe Ruth fountain pen. The scene on the carefully hand-enameled vintage barrel shows Babe Ruth, engraved in sterling silver, in the familiar, monumental pose immediately following one of his home runs. He stands on a delicately hand-painted field with the cheering fans of Yankee Stadium in the background. The surrounding casing is antique white celluloid with the classic navy pinstripes of the Yankees uniform. Engraved in the sterling silver band is the famous signature he signed on the baseballs of so many children.

 

R_BABE-RUTHA portion of Babe Ruth’s actual game-used bat is carefully mounted at the top of the sterling clip. The pen is presented in an authentic Yankee pinstriped flannel case with the familiar number “3″, symbolizing Babe Ruth’s legacy as a New York Yankee, and his love for the game that made him a star.

Available in a worldwide Limited Edition of 288 fountain pens and 35 rollerballs.
Piston Fill. F, M and B
