I think Ruth and Gehrig-- their entwined legacies, the shadows both left over the game-- are as big as it gets in baseball. And that is setting aside their gaudy numbers.
Even with the run we have seen on Ruth's key cards in recent years, I believe he (and Gehrig especially) have room to grow and deserve to grow in value. The shroud over so many current greats only raises past heroes to a higher level. To think how their names endure to fans after all these decades. The perfect storm of lovable personas, a huge stage, immense on-field ability, and those special historical moments like the called shot (accuracy of account there aside) and July 4th speech.

Wow some beautiful items in this thread. I am way out of my league here. Here are my own Bambino items. The original photos are from the 1934 Tour of Japan and 1926 catching a ball dropped from a bi-plane.
