Late 1920's Candid-Shot of Lou Gehrig Tony Lazzeri and Mark Koenig

[sporteq]

Vintage photo of Lou Gehrig at Spring Training in St. Petersburg Florida. Gehrig toying around taking a moment to try his amateur skills behind the camera. He's shooting Tony Lazzeri Mark Koeing and a unidentified individual. 5" x 7" Great detailed Silver Gelatin photograph in great shape. A few bends mostly on the outer perimeters of the photo. Clean front, with written player names on the back. The photo is most likely late 1920's photo. Koenig last year with the Yankees was in 1930. Unique candid-shot of half of the 1927 Murder's Row.



Thanks for looking!

Wow! Look at how times have changed! It looks like it would have been pretty easy to obtain any autographs you wanted! The fence looks like it has plenty of areas to hand stuff to the players through! Great item!

Love the subject matter of Lou taking a picture...maybe one day that photo will surface that Lou capture. Very cool!

Yeah- thaT would be great if it did surface. The image on the internet doesn't do this photo justice. It looks 10x better in person.

Thanks guys!
