Yankees slugger, Henry Louis Gehrig stands with future Hall of Fame manager, Miller Huggins in this 6.5" x 8.5" news service photo from International. Shot in St. Petersburg, Fl during spring training, 1929, the pair are at the batting cage next to teammate Babe Ruth who is just to their right. Though this example is slightly out of focus it remains in exemplary overall condition and appears free of surface wrinkles and creases typical of press photos from this era. Small pieces of paper remnants are affixed to all four corners of verso, which includes large International stamping. Authenticated and encapsulated as a Type 2 photo, created sometime during the 1940's, by PSA/DNA.
