Lou Gehrig 4" x 5" Photo Identification

Not a team issue but so what? It is a nice image from some sort of vintage set. I'd be pleased to own it. Here's one I have from the set:



Does anyone have a scan of the backs of these photos so I can ID the player?

FWIW, pro photographers who had field access did produce snapshots back in the day for sale to the public. I have a smattering of snaps that are clearly shot professionally. Here's a Burke of Hartnett:

These are Thorne prints. He photographed the team in St. Pete from the late 1920 until about 1940. He also photographed the Boston Braves. You usually see his photos in 8x10 format with a Thorne stamp and a place for the player's name on the reverse. He took a very sharp, posed photo. The poses were predictable. He also took team photos of the Yanks and Braves.
I've seen these smaller photos from time-to-time and own a few. The 8x10's are nicer items.
Thorne seems to have been unofficially replaced in Florida by Wm. Greene, the NYC photographer who took over for Charles Conlon at the Evening Telegram. Greene took a beautiful photograph, by the way.
