1994 Conlon Collection Lou Gehrig #1249 Burgundy

The Iron Horse, rendered in sepia stillness and burgundy trim

The Conlon Collection sets of the early 1990s reproduced the archival photography of Charles M. Conlon, whose portraits documented the deadball and interwar eras with unusual intimacy. Lou Gehrig, the Yankees first baseman whose consecutive-games streak and early death defined a generation of baseball memory, is a natural centerpiece for such a series. This is the Burgundy parallel of card number 1249, graded PSA 10, presenting with the clean corners and sharp registration that gem-mint designation requires.
