I have contacted the American Hosiery Association and based on their archives they have determined that the socks being worn by Gehrig were not manufactured until November 1926. Thus, the earliest that card could have been issued was November 1926, but it is unlikely Gehrig would have posed for a photo before the start of the next season, so the photo is almost certainly from 1927 or later.
