I really like the photos. I have a copy of the Ruth viewing Gehrig. I think they are great, but they are also something I doubt they would ever show in this day.

Thanks everybody.

I don't usually go after these type of pictures. I would rather remember them young and vibrant, but there is something special about that particular Gehrig that drew me to it.
There is an ethereal quality that really speaks to the relationship between the Gehrig and the kids. Perhaps I long to feel that innocent youthful hero worship in myself. Wanting to rekindle the lost connection of those days between player and fans.
Alright, I'm getting a bit sappy. Sorry.

Anyway, I'm glad you all liked seeing it.

Best,
Mark

I got the pic today.
Here are my scans.
There are no markings on the back except for what looks like adhesive from being stuck in a scrapbook perhaps.
I feel pretty sure it is vintage to the time period from a paper standpoint.
Clarity is outstanding in person.




I am very happy with the pic. It is more moving in person.
