Default Lou Gehrig signing habits

Posted By: David Atkatz

It says "sealed and delivered." It does not say that it was signed in her presence.
Nor do I see an actual Notary seal, with an ID number and expiration date.

Actually, there is nothing to indicate that document is original and/or authentic.

Lou Gehrig could not write six months before his death. He couldn't even hold his own cigarette--it was held for him. If it wasn't removed from his mouth in time, it would burn his lips.

(When I was a teenager, I spoke to the people who lived in Gehrig's last home (5204 Delafield Ave., Riverdale, NY) right after the Gehrigs did. Many interesting stories.)
