"VERY RARE LOU GEHRIG SIGNATURE, JSA CERTIFIED.
Henry "Lou" Gehrig (June 19, 1903 - June 2, 1941). Lou Gehrig is the second most famous Yankee of All-time behind only Babe Ruth. His record of playing in 2130 games which began in 1925 stood strong until 1995 when it was finally broken by Cal Ripken Jr. Lou Gehrig's #4 was the first to be retired by any team after he fatefully under his "I am the luckiest man on the face of this earth speech" as he was forced to retire from baseball. His career ended short and abruptly but his legacy did not. Gehrig was a 2 time MVP, Triple Crown Winner, still holds the record for most grand slams of all time, was a 6 time world series champion, hit .340 over his career and holds 3 of the top 6 RBI totals for a season.
