ITEM DESCRIPTION

This stunner of an 8 x 10 was signed by five of the seven HOFers lined up for a group shot before the 1937 All-Star Game at Griffith Stadium -- Joe Cronin, Bill Dickey, Joe DiMaggio, Charlie Gehringer and Hank Greenberg. Signatures are in blue or black pen, all NRMT beauties. An important facet of the picture is that it was the last All-Star Game for Lou Gehrig (far left) before becoming debilitated by disease. The Iron Horse went 2-for-4 with 4 RBIs in the AL's 8-3 victory. Also in the shot is Jimmie Foxx, second from right. Photo is NRMT with the legends' names in the bottom margin. Ex-Halper sale.
