Dead ringer for Lou.

People always used to comment “that Lou Gehrig …. Thin as a rail. Couldnt weigh more than 140 pounds soaking wet.”

Check out his Tori Stone. Or is that Michelle Obama. Or possibly Rosa Parks. Or Dionne Warwick.

Lou's handwriting on the back, too.

Well for the Dizzy dean photo, he does use a magnifying glass as part of his authentication and for shipping, he pays for a NEW box not you.

Always the same guy.

He hasn't posted on here for a while I feel. Maybe he finally got sick of the reception to these identifications he drums up on random photos.

Also, the research is awful. Kobe College, has been and was founded as a women's college. This would be Kobe University at best (it's not) and that is 100% not Lou.

During the tours they wore the All-Americans or All-Stars jerseys and certainly wouldn't have worn some random college or local teams uniform. Even while staying in Kobe in 1931, if Gehrig stopped by a local university to suit up, you can bet there would be some story or photo about it. He fails to understand that even during this period it was not completely strange to have an American or just generally white player on a team (Victor Starffin was on the Japanese team in 1934 for the last two games) or touring to play prior to WWII. In 1936 when the professional league was created they had 3 Americans on day one, including Jimmy Bonna who was a black American player.

The more telling and sad part of this photo is the barbed wire over the gate behind this player, which most certainly would not have been at a college field or tour site. From the clothing and setting, I would bet this could likely be a photo taken at an internment camp. They were not hellholes, but certainly not a great place to be. The held Japanese were provided with fields to play and had many leagues within to occupy and entertain. The somber looks of those in the back and their clothing, makes me think this some visit to play one of the interned teams.
