Barry,
That is exactly correct.

This the write up from the Hyee auction

A Vintage 1932 ORIGINAL Photograph issued by the Detroit News depicting New York Yankees star Lou Gehrig with old-timer, Bobby Lowe of the Boston Beaneaters. RARE 5” x 6” period photograph taken when Gehrig’s Yankees were in Detroit where Lowe lived and the Detroit News took the opportunity to take this photograph of the pair. Lowe was the 1st player ever to hit 4 home runs in one game (on May 30, 1894, doing it in consecutive at-bats). A few days ago, Gehrig became the 1st American League player to accomplish the feat.

That's a great photo Mark. I assumed it was taken shortly after Lou's big day.

Here is Nevins (Briggs) (Tiger) Stadium I thought you might like to see. Love the old stadium pictures.

Thanks Scott, I really like the shot too. It really feels like your sitting in the park.

Also, Dynarl great photo of the field and players. I'm wondering, is the guy walking in the stands wearing a tall white hat a vendor?

Here are a couple of other original negatives that I have of the stadium both from their 1940 AL Championship season

First is a regular day game, I like how the sun is coming in and the sweet hats on the fellas.

Second, is a shot from behind the plate during Game 3 of the World Series vs. the Cincinnati Reds
