Lou Gehrig Batting Photo
One of the cleanest, crispest images of The Iron Horse that can be found is this “picture-perfect” 5 x 7” honey of a shot that looks more like an oil painting. Remarkable contrast and clarity. Gehrig’s uniform is highlighted against a smooth black background, his strong hands gripping the bat as it follows through, his upper body ramrod straight and legs angled low to the ground for maximum power -- and his eyes fixed like lasers under his Yankee cap on the flight of the ball. Even the creases on his pants and the shine of his shoes seem like the product of fine brushstrokes. Back of photo has stamping “American League Service Bureau” in green and another “From Apex Photograph Company,” both with Chicago addresses. “Lou Gehrig: 1B New York” in typed across the upper back. Best of all, photo is NRMT, front and back.
