My 2 favorite Gehrig photos:

1927 with Christy Walsh's son.


1927 playing sandlot ball with a group of kids


1929 photo of the Penn State Band at Yankees Stadium signed by Ruth, Gherig, and others. Most are vintage with a couple added later on.




Lastly but not leastly, my Kreindler painting of the photo Ben now owns. It is way more spectacular in person.

I'm now a Beatles guy, but still a Gehrig collector. One of my closest friends, Ben Weingarten, led me to this incredible signed set of the Boys, and stepped aside so I could add it to my collection. Now THAT'S a real friend!

And I picked up this terrific signed Gehrig Post Card made out to "me" several years ago! Would love to get a Beatles set signed to Jimmy!

You can get a Beatles set signed by Jimmy (Nicol) ;-).

Yours is still the closest I've seen, David! It's still early in the game... How about a Babe Ruth 'jimmy' Babe Ruth David? I'm pretty sure you do, but it was made out to the Bambino's friend, hence last name? Tis correct?

It sure is a beautiful set buddy. We have both helped each other build our collections in different ways. You have THE best original Beatles photo collections I have ever seen. You were also able maintain a top tier Gehrig collection through the process. Amazing and love that you posted/shared these with us. Gold.

Ps: David/Jimmy, where are all the "to Ben/Benjamin/Benny" signed items? Seriously.. I have never seen one by Gehrig, Ruth or the Beatles. Hell, I would settle for Benji...��
