Jim, the Yanks were in St. Louis on August 1, and in Chicago on August 3. August 2 was a travel day. Check it yourself:

I AM looking at it ...from 7/27 till 8/8 the Yanks were at home. In answer to the 2nd question about disregarding the postmarks to instead focus on the autograph would be like saying..OK its postmarked 1942 but does Gehrig's signature look real ? The postmarks and any other intangibles are as important as the signature in my opinion

OK. The Yanks were at home during the stated period. But it was mailed from Boston, not NY.
There are characteristics of the signature, however, that are very rarely--if ever--seen on a genuine Gehrig. Together, is that enough to disqualify it? I think so. Last edited by David Atkatz; 10-12-2012 at 03:33 PM. |
