Description: THIS DANBURY MINT ALL STAR FIGURINES NEW YORK YANKEES LOU GEHRIG IS AN AMAZING PIECE OF ARTWORK. THE DETAIL IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING AND THE HAND-PAINTED FIGURINE IS EXTREMELY REALISTIC AND VIVID. IT IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, THE PHOTO THAT LOOKS LIKE A SCRATCH ON THE BASE WAS JUST A PIECE OF LINT, WHICH I HAVE REMOVED. THER ARE NO CHIPS, CRACKS, OR REPAIRS. THE WOODEN BASE MEASURES 5" x 7" AND THE OVERALL HEIGHT OF THE FIGURINE IS 8" TALL. THERE IS A METAL PEG UNDERNEATH EACH OF LOU'S SPIKES THAT SLIDE INTO HOLES ON THE BASE TO HOLD HIM IN PLACE. THE FRONT OF THE BASE HAS A BRASS PLATE ATTACHED WITH LOU GEHRIG ENGRAVED ON IT AND THE PLASTIC PROTECTIVE STRIP IS STILL IN PLACE. HIS FAUX AUTOGRAPH IS ON THE TOP OF THE BASE IN GOLD LETTERS UNDERNEATH THE FIGURINE. THERE IS ALSO AN OVAL BRASS PLATE ATTACHED TO THE BASE THAT SAYS ALL STAR FIGURINES OFFICIAL ISSUES OF THE DANBURY MINT AND A GOLD LOU GEHRIG STICKER ON THE BOTTOM OF THE BASE AND 4 CLOTH TABS TO PREVENT ANY SCRATCHES ON WHATEVER YOU DISPLAY THE HIM ON. LOU WAS KNOWN AS THE "IRON HORSE" FOR HIS DURABILITY AND RECORD GAMES PLAYED IN A ROW. HE WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST PLAYERS TO EVER PLAY BASEBALL, A 7-TIME ALL STAR, HITTING .340 FOR HIS CAREER, WINNING 6 WORLD SERIES, WINING A TRIPLE CROWN, AND 2 MVPs. HE RETIRED AFTER BEING DIAGNOSED WITH ALS AT 35 YEARS OF AGE AND DIED 2 YEARS LATER. GEHRIG WAS INDUCTED INTO THE BASEBALL HALL OF FAME IN COOPERSTOWN, N.Y. AND WAS THE FIRST PLAYER EVER TO HAVE HIS UNIFORM RETIRED. ALS IS NOW KNOWN AS THE LOU GEHRIG DISEASE. THIS WILL MAKE AN AWESOME ADDITION FOR ANY GEHRIG, YANKEES, BASEBALL FAN, OR ANY FIGURINE COLLECTOR AND IT WOULD MAKE AN AMAZING GIFT.
