Stop scaring me Steve! Actually, the original is not quite as bad (and I can look at without running to hide under the bed).

Does look a little flying money-ish, Wizard of Oz, no?

Here's what a 1926-29 Exhibits Gehrig would look like in nicely trimmed silhouette form.

That one cracks me up every time, Brian. I used to have a Darby Chocolates card cut like that (Chief Meyers).

It makes me smile too. The cutter did such a nice job on Lou. In the same group that I picked up Lou I also had Cobb and Ruth Exhibits that were cut similarly, but I liked the Gehrig pose the most, so I let go Ty and Babe.

Those are really nice, Gary. I think I might've owned the one with the pinhole in it...soooo tough in any condition.

Great stuff so far! I love seeing all of the variations and unusual issues.

Gehrig's "other" rookie. Card is mine. 1923 photo is not.
