Lou Gehrig Inscribed and Signed Photo
Rare inscribed and signed photo of Lou Gehrig. Boldly inscribed in black fountain ink: “…To George / With Kindest Regards / Cordially / Lou Gehrig.” The New York Yankee first baseman put up some of baseball’s most impressive offensive statistics while playing in 2,130 consecutive games over 14 seasons, a record that stood for more than 50 years until Cal Ripken Jr. broke it in 1995. Gehrig’s consecutive streak was halted only by the stunning diagnosis of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, the debilitating disease of the nervous system that would come to bear his name. Photo measures 4″ x 6″ and is accompanied by original frame. Excellent condition. A rare personalized item from the beloved “Pride of the Yankees.” Sold for $5,500.
