Jimmy,
What a GREAT photo of Gehrig used for his 1961 golden press card. Truly a fantastic shot! The MINTY Beatles stuff you have acquired is second to none that I have seen. Lots of Beatles stuff out there but you somehow find the rarest stuff in the highest condition. That is a pretty good combination I would say! Great way to start the month! It is hard to believe we are almost to the midway part of the year. I have added a couple more TYPE 1 Photos to my collection below. A). Roger Maris’ 61st HR taken by Olen. It is very interesting that Olen shot it from the rafters as he could have had any pick of a seat as a yankee photographer. I truly believe this is one of the greatest images of this historic day and am VERY happy to have added it to “The Vault”.  B). Gehrig portrait used for his 1941 memorial day ticket as well as the memorial at Yankee stadium. Definitely a defining portrait of Lou. It has some emulsion on his chin but for some reason it doesn't bother me as much as maybe it should. Perhaps it is because it is 1 of 3 examples known and didn't cost me 8k.
