This unique and fairly new to the hobby original photograph was taken at the ranch of former ball player Jiggs Donohue. Gehrig is pictured on the ranch goofing off with Donohue's kids while still wearing his Larrupin Lou's barnstorming uniform. There's only one other photo from this day in Sioux City known to exist and it pictures Ruth who would have been just out of frame to the left of this photo. The photo exhibits a flawless image with outstanding clarity. Only issues are a couple of barely noticeable creases on the top and bottom right corners. Overall a 9-10/10 original photograph from nearly a century ago in our opinion. The 4.75x6.75" photo has been encapsulated by PSA/DNA in a Type I holder (84248967)
