Display options for Babe and Gehrig?
 
1 Attachment(s)
Net54 rarely disappoints with creative ideas…. Recently, I was introduced to Hartland figures as a complementary item for my Hank RC and it looks great!

Now I am looking for new ideas to supplement my ‘33 Goudey Ruth and Gehrig cards.

Any creative ideas? Favorite joint photos? Something else that visually connects the two Yankee greats?

I do like the image of the two of them sitting behind a batting cage (I think) with Miller Huggens sitting between them. Lou, especially looks like a beast next to his big boys.

Any other ideas to share?

I'm not sure if you're in the market for accompanying balls signed by both Ruth and Gehrig, though that could get pricey. Maybe a replication of each of their bat models?

Sadly, a signed ball would be well out of my reach! But perhaps something of a replica - thx for the suggestion!

One of these would look cool...

There are some great photos of Ruth and Gehrig together hunting and fishing. Cool to see them together away from the field, enjoying each other's company.

keep going with the heartland theme...or...starting lineups or other figurines. the photo from lou gehrig day where they're hugging would be an easy kill!!!!

How about an old timey photo or some sort of cool model of Yankee Stadium?

Yep, I have found several images that may make the cut... here are a few that I'm considering:

How about another Hartland?

Hartland made a combined statue or Ruth and Gehrig back around 2005. They are often available on eBay.

No, I meant literally Yankee Stadium, the building itself.
