Awesome photo! You may want to check out Ebbets Field Flannels, they have very nice looking repro versions of the Larrupin' Lou's and Bustin' Babes hats featured in that photo on sale. They'd look great displayed next to it!

I got pneumonia. I'll recover, but it's a crappy way to start.
On the other hand, I did get this beautiful 8x10 or thereabouts pic of Gehrig and Ruth.
It was taken winter of 1927 in Nebraska, by Photographer Nathaniel Dewell.
He was most famous for his aerospace pics of air mail pilots from the 1920's

Below the pics is a page from a book the seller sent me describing the event. You can see the book references Ruth being presented with an egg. I think this is what the picture is depicting.
