'Henry Louis Gehrig' Autograph
Gehrig joined the Phi Delta Theta Fraternity (NY Delta Chapter) at Columbia University as a young engineering student. His mother had been a house mom there for a number of years and his dad was an occasional handyman for the chapter. We see a lot of bad autographs on this board, so I wanted to show the one from when he signed the 'Bond of Phi Delta Theta' shortly after his initiation. (The Bond is certainly the most secretive book in the fraternity; only available to initiated members. Each chapter is given a handwritten copy.) The original book is housed at Phi Delta Theta's General Headquarters in Oxford, OH. This picture is of the roll call at the end of the book that is on display there. It is a photocopy, if I remember correctly.
