Finally bought a Lou Gehrig rookie!
I've wanted this card for about 10-15 years and I finally got one.
BVG 1.5 It looks much better than that, but it has a pin hole at the top which is why it graded so low. The rest of the card looks awesome, though!

Art. Just beautiful.
Grade is irrelevant to me at that time period. Just total beauty.
