Default Earliest Photo of Gehrig as a Yankee?
I picked up this 1924 Yankees team photo from the recent Hunt auction. It shows Gehrig as part of the 24 Yankees. Anyone know of any other original photos of Gehrig from 1924 or before as a Yankee? (I know there are plenty of Columbia photos that are earlier.)

Default Early Gehrig photos
I know that Jimmy (The King Of Clout) has several early photos of Gehrig including a Type I photo announcing his debut with the Yanks.
Maybe Jimmy will throw a few Gehrig bombs up here to wet your appetite....

Also, there is a 1923 Mid Week Pictorial Premium (Oct. 4, 1923) of the 1923 Yankees Team with Gehrig.

(Thanks again to Phil for pointing me in its direction at the NSCC this year!)

Default Here you go Gary...
Lou Gehrig made his Major League Debut on June 15, 1923.

Here is The New York Evening Post Newspaper dated June 14, 1923. One day prior to Gehrig's Debut.

This original 17"x 21" sports page has a large photo of Lou Gehrig stating that he "NOW WEARS A YANKEE UNIFORM"

I bought the photo in Summer of 2010 without knowing when it was taken, and stumbled onto the Evening Post Sport's Page a few months later. That's about as lucky as I've ever been...
