On June 21, 1939, after returning from a week-long examination at the Mayo Clinic, Gehrig revealed that he was suffering from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and would never play baseball again. Offered is a stunning image of the team members posing in their road uniforms during what were certainly happier times. Gehrig and McCarthy are both here, along with a young Joe DiMaggio and the rest of the '39 squad.
This 10.5x13.5" photo is affixed to a slim piece of cardboard backing and exhibits good clarity and is in exceptional condition. A few rough corners and a little blemish of paper loss on the bottom left are the only small issues. Gehrig can be found smack dab in the middle of the World Championship squad looking jovial.
