This first generation photo was taken at the 1939 All Star game and shows reserves Lou Gehrig and Jimmie Foxx with starter Red Ruffing watching the action. Dated July 13, 1939(2 days later) with Acme News photo credits. The image is very clean with only some very light unobtrusive creasing at the corners and the tiniest of chips. 9" x 7".
