I couldn't agree more. If there are two better objects that capture Gehrig and Ruth I'm unaware of them.
Particularly like the Gehrig one as he's laughing. Seems today many of the depictions of him are always dour and humorless. A real drag to be around. I doubt that very much. Yes he was apparently painfully (painfully) shy and particularly when paired with Ruth was more than happy to play second banana (who wouldn't in Ruth's footsteps?). Gehrig reminds me a lot like Mets current first baseman Lucas Duda. Shy and awkward around a spotlight but probably a great guy. Not everyone is cut out for the spotlight and mike in their face. |
