Graded EX-MT 6 by PSA. Hall of Famer. Among a total of nearly 225 examples recorded in PSA’s census reporting, just twenty-one copies (less than ten percent of the total population) have been placed at a higher tier. The offered collectible displays the inimitable DeLong characterization of Lou Gehrig, and the rendering provided on this specimen delivers noteworthy eye appeal. An inspiring and thoroughly fresh palette of color highlights the depiction, and the stunningly deep quality of the item's red, yellow, blue and green hues cannot be overdramatized. Evidence of handling is limited to acceptable touches of corner wear, and, in defiance of the DeLong issue's documented predisposition, the reverse is clean and barejust lightly toned. A truly fascinating and rare Gehrig memento, in very sound Excellent to Mint condition.
