(LOT 2)
1925 Exhibit Supply Co. Lou Gehrig Gray Tint Rookie PSA 3.5 VG+

IRON HORSE ROOKIE!!!... The most significant rookie card in our illustrious hobby continues to be the 1916 M101 Babe Ruth keepsake, with his immortal teammate Henry Louis Gehrig's inaugural card steadily gaining ground on the incomparable Bambino. For the longest time, the 1925 Exhibits Gray Tint Gehrig rookie was extremely undervalued and was obtainable for a fraction of the cost of the Babe's 1916 subject. The past 4-5 years have seen that concept radically change, with a PSA 5 Iron Horse Rookie fetching a record $1.032 million in July 2021. Additional notable price tags include a whopping $802K for a PSA 6 (MK) in February 2021; $387K for a PSA 4 in April 2023; $126K for a PSA 2.5 likewise in April 2023; and $195K for a PSA 3 (MK) in August 2021. Indeed, these lofty figures clearly indicate that the Gehrig Rookie is here to stay with regard to its popularity and value. That said, Memory Lane is ultra-proud to present a super eye-pleasing PSA 3.5 VG+ 1925 Exhibits Gray Tint Lou Gehrig Rookie that truly stands as one of the finer examples you will ever come across.
