Lou Gehrig and "Gentleman Jim" Corbett met during the World Series, September 28, 1932. The Yankees went on to defeat the Chicago Cubs. Photo is horizontal in format, 10" x 8" and has a small chip in the upper right corner and 2 small 1/4" tears. Photo overall is in very good condition with a nice gloss surface and good contrast. True to his name, former heavyweight boxing champion "gentleman Jim" is pictured wearing a suit with top hat, coat and scarf, extending his glove laden hand to Gehrig to shake.
