There were no closeup shots of Gehrig, but he may be in a few of the photos with many players in it. I think these photos probably originated from a former player since most of them were taken on the field or from the dugout.

Just going by uniform numbers I see Bill Dickey, Red Rolfe, and Joe DiMaggio (wearing number 9 which he wore his rookie year.) Gehrig could be one of the other players.

I believe this is probably Gehrig at bat here since you can see Bill Dickey on deck. Dickey hit in the 5 spot behind Gehrig in 1936.

Here are a few more from the lot.

Boy...look at all those dedicated St Louis Browns fans. (Ben Chapman at bat)
