The only example we've ever seen of this supreme rarity, and likely the only one we ever will see. Rather sophisticated publi-cation serves as a yearbook but is actually a monthly soft cover publication produced at Gehrig's "High School of Commerce" on Manhattan's Upper West Side. Ninety-eight pages include the earliest Gehrig baseball photo we've seen, as well as glow-ing mentions of him as the school team's first baseman. Top corner of cover is chipped, but otherwise condition is just great, with no creasing, tearing or significant staining. You thought the Columbia University yearbooks we've offered before were great? You haven't seen anything yet!
