Item Description
The color print of Lou Gehrig and Babe Ruth is from an original 35mm transparency, photographed on July 4, 1939. Color film was just becoming available in the United States and this photograph is possibly the first and only with Lou Gehrig in a Yankees uniform alongside his old teammate Babe Ruth. On that day, Gehrig was honored at Lou Gehrig Appreciation Day at Yankee Stadium. In his farewell speech, Gehrig spoke the immortal words, “I am the luckiest man on the face of the earth.”
