Description
Circa 1930 Babe Ruth & Lou Gehrig Dual-Signed Baseball. "They didn't get along," explained fellow pinstriped Hall of Famer Tony Lazzeri. "Lou thought Ruth was a big-mouth and Ruth thought Gehrig was cheap. They were both right." Though their personalities couldn't have been more different, the men whose digits were the first to be retired from Yankee service share the manner of athletic immortality reserved for just the highest reaches of the athletic pantheon. Separately, their autographs remain among the most coveted and collectible in the hobby, but together that appeal swells exponentially, particularly when that shared medium is horsehide.Here's a solid mid-grade specimen featuring that storied slugging tandem, with the Babe claiming his standard sweet spot position in 6/10 black ink, and Gehrig about two points lighter to the east. Non-official ball exhibits some foxing that remains largely clear of the signatures. Full LOA from Beckett Authentication Services.
