To this day many baseball historians would credit Lou Gehrig with the best hitting season of all time. Always overshadowed by Babe Ruth, Gehrig would remain out of the limelight as much as possible. While the Babe would sign for almost any willing fan, Gehrig would walk by the many requests just trying to move on with his day. For that reason among others, single signed Lou Gehrig items are even more rare than dual signed Ruth-Gehrig material & certainly more scarce than the famous autograph of The Babe on its own. Offered here is a unique vintage signed 3.5" x 5.25" postcard photograph of The Iron Man in uniform. Signed by the legend in bold black fountain point ink, "To Roger, Best Wishes from Lou Gehrig". Overall in fine condition with some toning and handling wear, and two pin holes at the top corners. Unknown handwriting on the reverse, probably indicating the potential year this was signed. Authenticated & encapsulated by PSA/DNA.
