2 Gehrigs

[Runscott]

Are you comfortable with the Gehrigs? If it they had not been twice the size of a normal Gehrig, I would have been bidding.

I ultimately took the text of my post down, thinking maybe some weird situation arose in Japan where he was asked to sign with a very large signature.

Not Johnny's style at all--and by now, I should know.

Those Gehrigs are good. (His mid 1930s style--which these are--tended to be larger.)

Thanks, David. I posted prematurely, but it's still probably okay to get such discussions going. In any event, it helped me, as I will no longer be as apprehensive about large Gehrigs.

I'm still keeping my eyes open for a 'Ruth/Gehrig' signed ball, but it will probably take even longer than it did for me to purchase my first Ruth flat. Still haven't been brave enough to win a Gehrig, although I've put in fair bids on a few.
