There is wear around the edges of the card and there is wear showing to the writing in the name BUT why isn't there more wear to the "L" in Ludwig? That "L" is close to the lower left hand corner of the card and wouldn't one expect the corners of the card to be the area where people would hold it the most?
Also, if Gehrig's name can be found so easily on Baseball Reference then how hard would it be to find an old cabinet card from a New York photographer of a baby and then add a block letter name on the back? Also, why block letters? Didn't most people use pens with metal jibs which allowed them to write so fanciful back then? David |
