Titans of the baseball world converge in this enormous Type I photograph from what is often considered the game's most legendary season. In an image captured at League Park (then known as Dunn Field) prior to a contest on July 12, 1927, New York Yankees standouts George Herman "Babe" Ruth and Henry Louis Gehrig, The Iron Horse, pose with their legendary manager, Miller Huggins, commander of the dominant Murderer's Row Yankees teams of the mid-late 1920's. This substantial 11" x 14" large format photo hails from the lens of prolific Cleveland-based press photographer, Louis Van Oeyen whose originals rightly rank among the most sought after vintage photographic prints in the hobby. Van Oeyen has done a remarkable job of capturing the essence of the three future Hall of Famers sitting side-by-side in the midst of compiling a dominant 110-win season, finishing 19-games ahead of the second place Philadelphia Athletics to capture the American League pennant before sweeping the Pittsburgh Pirates in the 1927 World World Series. Obvious wear can be found around the perimeter of this photo including considerable rounding of the corners, creasing, and small tears that do little to detract from the outstanding central image in any significant way. Verso includes Van Oeyen's personal credit stamping, period fountain pen identifiers of the men depicted (in what appears to be Van Oeyen's hand), and a handwritten date of July 12, 1927. In a game that featured 14 base hits by the Yankees, The Babe blasted his 30th home run of the season (a two-run shot) and Lou Gehrig added an RBI double in a 7-0 rout of the Cleveland Indians. Another photo depicting Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig alone, shot by Van Oeyen in the same location, and bearing identical stamping and handwritten notations on reverse, sold at auction elsewhere in the hobby several years ago for $90,678. That photo was authenticated as a Type II example, indicating it was developed from the original negative but outside of the aproximate two-year window to qualify for Type I status. The offered large format 11" x 14" photo depicting Ruth, Huggins, and Gehrig has been authenticated by PSA as a Type I (developed within approx. two years of the image being shot) and includes their full LOA.
