If you're talking about second earliest as a Yankee, what other photo are you thinking of as being first? Both your copy and mine have a slug dated 3/14/23. Additionally yours is stamped 3/18/24. Mine is not stamped. I can't recall a different picture depicting Lou as a Yankee being dated prior to either of these photos.
Best,

Hey Mark, I mentioned it earlier in my thread that I thought that the Super Bowl had something to do with the prices as they were coinciding with each other. I had placed several snipes and forgot about the auctions ending until I got notified by my iPhone.
As for the Gehrig, you can use this as a reference as I did:
http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com...nia-collector/ Jimmy is one of the foremost experts in Gehrig photos today and I trust his opinion on the Gehrig photo that I had won.
I am pretty sure that the earliest photo of Gehrig in a Yankee's uniform is listed on Jimmy's site as well and can be viewed at:

Good conversation stuff mark, thanks for asking!
