B&W Photo of Babe Ruth Giving Lou Gehrig a Big Hug.
Lot 253. B&W Photo of Babe Ruth Giving Lou Gehrig a Big Hug. “They didn’t get along. Gehrig thought Ruth was a big-mouth and Ruth thought Gehrig was cheap. They were both right,” said teammate and fellow HoF member Tony Lazzeri. That may have been true, but the Sultan of Swat and the Iron Horse looked like friends the day Gehrig retired from baseball. The 19 ¼” x 23 ¼” framed, double-matted photo shows the Yankee duo reunited on “Lou Gehrig Day,” July 4, 1939.
Winning Bid $55.
