I'm betting Gehrig is nowhere to be seen. I don't think the guy in the middle is near studly enough and the resemblance is only faint; Gehrig has one of those faces where you just know when it's him. If this is Japan it is probably one of the numerous college teams that toured there before Gehrig went over in 1934. (I don't know if he was over another time). I am surprised the seller (whom I've dealt with many times with happy results) sold these without some corroborating provenance.
