It is difficult to find very much information on this style of pocket watch. The back is exactly the same as the backs on the Club Member watches from the 1930's. The front is similar as well, but the face is a baseball with the classic Ruth signature. This may be from the 1940's or possibly later. There is a crack in the glass. It does keep time for a period of time. This was defiantly loved by someone based on the usage and wear.
