Ken-Wei Gehrig Ad Piece

[ullmandds]

On one hand one of these was auctioned in Heritage a ways back and deemed vintage...there are a few online for sale at quite variable prices ranging from $70-$500.

I found an old thread stating they are fantasy pieces.

I may have gotten duped today...I found this at an antique store...in an old frame...with this gerber baby image behind it int he frame.

Does anyone know anything about this?

[ruth-gehrig]

Absolute fantasy piece. I still like it however and have one myself. My mom custom framed it for me while I was in college thinking it was more important than i did

[drcy]

Ones with the metal eyelet are modern fantasy pieces. Though worth a few bucks as display pieces

[Snapolit1]

Still see them coming up in major auctions.

It's been a long time since I've seen any decent sized AH make that mistake/oversight. Not in the last 8-10 years anyway... perhaps I have missed a few.

Yes, Steve. Please provide links to recent sales of these by major, legit auction houses.
