Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig Autograph 5″ x 7″ Pre-1928 Photo in Yankee Pinstripes and Wearing Baseball Mitts
Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig autograph photograph. 5″ x 7″ black and white image depicts the two Yankee greats standing side by side on the baseball field wearing their pinstripe pants. Inscribed by Ruth in brown ink at the upper left, “For Walter from, ‘Babe’ Ruth” beside which Gehrig signs in black ink, “& Lou Gehrig”. Small .25″ tear (with no emulsion loss) at top, not affecting either signature, else fine. A difficult to acquire pairing of legendary signatures on a single photograph. A Babe Ruth signature with the quotation marks around “Babe” typifies his pre-1928 autograph and will sell at a higher value as well. Sold for $19,036.
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.

Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig Autograph on a Ball from 1927
Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig autograph on a baseball. On the sweet spot, Ruth’s black ink penning reveals sizable upper-case “B” and “R” characters. Gehrig signature in black ink on adjacent panel. The presence of Johnson’s facsimile signature, under which penmanship removal can be seen, coupled with the quotation marks around “Babe” (in Ruth’s own hand, of course) likely date the keepsake to 1927, as Johnson was supplanted by Barnard in 1928, the same year Ruth abandoned the use of quotation marks. The medium-toned sphere features prominent stampings and vibrant, alternating red and blue laces. Accompanied by Letters of Authenticity from PSA/DNA and James Spence Authentication attesting that the Babe Ruth autograph is authentic. Sold for $10,470.
