This brief note illustrates the class and generosity for which the Iron Horse was famous. Lou Gehrig writes, "Dear Mr. Gomsby, Some day when you bring your son to game, bring him down to the bench. I'd be delighted to meet him. Lou Gehrig". The single page on a government postcard dated July 19, 1935 is somewhat rumpled and stained, but the writing is clearly legible. While Gehrig's signature is rare in any form, handwritten letters from this Yankee icon are extraordinarily scare and stand as some of the rarest and most coveted pieces of Iron Horse autographed memorabilia. This is the first Gehrig handwritten letter that we've handled in years! Don't miss the opportunity to add one to your collection! Accompanied by a full Letter of Authenticity from PSA/DNA.
