Attractive magic lantern slide advertising the 1920 film "Headin' Home" with Babe Ruth. The image of Ruth with star Mildred Tobin is taken right from a still that was used to advertise the film "A six act comedy-drama full of pep and personality." The still is in fine condition with some minor scratches. Please note that the color image you see when opening this lot listing is the image of the actual slide scanned as a transparency to help you see the color and detail of the photo itself. The actual slide is the second image you see (with the borders from "Unique Slide Co."). As such when viewing the slide transparency it appears that the upper corners are clipped - but when looking at the actual slide itself you can see it is entirely intact.
