Jerry Amernic has been enthralled by the Babe for over 25 years, starting with research

for his novel ‘Gift of the Bambino.’ His latest book ‘BABE RUTH - A Superstar’s Legacy’

is the first book that focuses on his powerful legacy which goes far beyond baseball and sport.

It reveals his impact on culture, history, the arts and especially business, branding and marketing. That is the focus of BABE RUTH MASTER MARKETER...

In Episode 3 Jerry explores the billion-dollar industry of sports collecting and sports memorabilia. Babe Ruth is far and away the #1 commodity in the business, and some of the industry’s top executives explain why this remains the case to this very day. In his time Babe Ruth was also a merchandiser par excellence who pitched and sold everything – hats, caps, sweaters, even automobiles. Together with his agent Christy Walsh he set the mold for marketing and for celebrity itself, but then he possessed qualities that made it all possible. Members from the Ruth family such as his grandson Tom and daughter Julia reveal personal insights into how this came about, and people who are now deeply involved in the business side of Babe Ruth and the cultural phenomenon he became share their keen analysis.
