Lou Gehrig Becomes Stock Broker (1929)

Lou Gehrig has just joined a Wall Street brokerage firm to become a stock broker. Interestingly enough this is only a month after Black Tuesday. This was perhaps a public relations move by Wall Street to bolster confidence in the stock market. With period stock ticker, he is joining the firm of an old Columbia University teammate shown here. International Newsreel stamp on the verso. Original paper caption. NRMT. 6x8”.
