"One of the biggest siege guns of the New York Yankees" is how the Goudey write-up writer began his description of Lou Gehrig on the back of this 1933 collectible, one of two Gehrig (rookie) cards in the company's 240-card issue that year. It was another productive one for the perennial star as he clouted 32 home runs to make it five consecutive 30-plus homer seasons - a streak he would extend to nine. A New York Times sportswriter once wrote, in summing up the reliability and good nature of Lou, "he was the answer to a manager's dream." If you've dreamed of owning an authentic encapsulated Gehrig RC, now's your chance at an affordable example that displays decently in the latest of PSA holders, labeled PR 1.
