Babe Ruth & Gary Cooper "Pride of the Yankees" Photo
1942
Very Good


An original newswire photo measuring 7.25" x 9" with newswire note affixed to reverse with the following description of the scene....."THE PRIDE OF THE YANKEES - Finale - Tears well in the eyes of Gary Cooper, portraying the great baseball hero Lou Gehrig, as he receives the congratulations of his teammates and 62,000 cheering fans and leaves the Yankee Stadium for the last time, in this scene from Samuel Goldwyn's "The Pride of the Yankees", which stars Cooper with Teresa Wright, Walter Brennan and Babe Ruth. Directed by Sam Wood, written by Jo Swerling and herman J. Mankiewicz and rereleased through RKO Radio, the picture tells the intimate love story of an outstanding public hero." Photo is in very nice condition, although there is a small area at forefront that appears to have been subjected to direct light and thus may be faded a bit. Otherwise, the photo is sharp and clear and only has one light corner crease at upper right.
