Funny how this advertisement makes dealers think it's "Babe" himself: http://mtr.arcade-museum.com/MTR-1920-71-12/index.php?page_no=60&frame=MTR-1920-71-12-60.pdf. But if you listen to the disc at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHFDM_oBRLs, it's obviously Russell Hunting (his voice and speech pattern are easily ascertainable). Here's an audio recording of "Babe" himself to compare it with (skip to 5:45): http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/crime/listen-rare-babe-ruth-audio/2012/05/02/gIQANf5jwT_video.html. Here's another one of "Babe" (and after comparing this to the 1937 broadcast, we know it's him): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p2WZufrzQk. -Ryan
