[edit] Fair use claim for photo to be used in Babe Ruth article

This photo dates from 1927. The source of this particular photo is the book The Great All-Time Baseball Record Book, published in 1980 by MacMillan Publishing, authored by Joseph Reichler. Photo credit is given to the New York Yankees.

A fair use claim is made for this photo to be used in the Babe Ruth article, in the section "1927: A Team for the Ages." Some detail is written about this team in this article, a team many baseball experts still consider the greatest team of all-time. When one mentions this team, one thinks of the greatness of this team of Ruth's record 60 home run season, even though Lou Gehrig was the American League MVP.
