In 1928, Yankees star baseball player, Babe Ruth, appeared in a picture called “Speedy” in which Harold Lloyd played a Babe Ruth fan who saves New York’s last horse-drawn trolley. So I’m guessing that this is a publicity photo dreamed up by the wiseguys in the Paramount Pictures publicity department. Is it just me or there a rather blatantly phallic quality to this photo? Given how libidinous Babe was, I don’t think it’s much of a stretch to assume that he didn’t return to the hotel alone that day.
