Charlie Sheen auctioning off his Babe Ruth Memorabilia. '27 ring and sale document

The famed actor was revealed to be the owner of Babe Ruth’s 1927 World Series ring, along with an original copy of the sale document sending the Great Bambino to New York, and is selling both as part of a Leland’s auction that will be completed Friday.
quote:
The two lots are already drawing over $1 million combined, with bidding on the ring over $600,000 and bidding on the document over $400,000. Both are expected to climb higher, giving Sheen a handsome profit, or at least he thinks so — he has no memory of what he paid for them back in the early 1990s. This is in large part due to their mint condition, which the “Major League” actor says is better than the condition of memorabilia seen at the Baseball Hall of Fame. Boston owner Harry Frazee’s copy of the document (Sheen is selling Yankees owner Jacob Ruppert’s) sold in 2005 for $996,000.

Why does it look wooden?

Why would you want the document without the ring?

it is probably lower karat count than todays rings. may also be because it is cut with different metals that do not react as well to oxygen as gold. gold itself is too soft to be used for jewelry. over 90 years the other metals tarnish.

That's not the sale document of the ring. It's the document moving Ruth from Boston to New York. They are very different things.

Sheen's a knucklehead but he knows how to buy quality stuff.

I wouldn't be shocked if Sheen was crazy enough to wear it around as well.
Concerning the auction, both of those items should probably be in Cooperstown or the Yankees stadium museum and not some collectors vault. Sadly some douche bag tech bro will probably get both and stick them in his man cave.

What's Bree Olson's clit ring going for?
Posted on 6/26/17 at 8:58 pm to Winston Cup
Interesting. May pick those up. Need some cheaper stuff for my collection.
