Graded NM/MT 8 by PSA. A mere two examples of this exceptionally popular card have ever been graded at a higher level by PSA. Faced with the new responsibility of carrying the gum sales torch formerly employed by his teammate Babe Ruth, the “Iron Horse” trudged on without the Bambino leading the assault on the chewing gum youth of America with two separate cards in the 34’ Goudey issue. Offered is the iconic low number pasteboard of the Yankee siege gun presented in immaculate glory. A well-centered image highlighted by pure white borders that extend out to four wonderfully fresh corners. The color is immaculate with booming hues of canary yellow in perfect combination with royal blue at the bottom in the “Lou Gehrig Says” portion of the card. The reverse is clean and well preserved without any hindrance to mention. A stellar 1934 “Yellow” Gehrig offered in sparkling NM/MT condition.
