What did I get? I'm glad you asked..
1927 Lou Gehrig Type 1 portrait and companion Sporting News guide the pic was used in.




1927 Babe Ruth Type 1 portrait


1927 Yankees infield Type 1


Lou Gehrig Christmas card


1927 Yankee Team Photo Type 1



and my favorite pic of the group

Lou Gehrig with Christy Walsh Jr. Son of Lou and Babe's agent.
Such a touching pic of Lou in his prime. Year is 1927. From Walsh family scrapbooks.


I am pretty psyched!

Like my dear friend Mark, I too stayed home while others went to Chicago. And as it would happen, I also made a big trade. Mark got multiple first-rate Gehrig/Ruth photographs with a couple of swell pieces of Gehrig memorabilia. And with just this one Babe Ruth photo by Paul Thompson, I significantly strengthened my Bambino photo collection. A sweet deal all the way around. Thanks again Mark. All my best, Jimmy
