He spent his entire 19-season career with the Detroit Tigers (1924-1942) and earned six straight All-Star selections from 1933 to 1938. Eight years after his retirement, the Detroit Tigers hired Gehringer to be the team's general manager. He remained with the organization in various positions throughout the 1950s. Signed across postmark and commemorative stamp but fully legible. Slightly soiled. Otherwise, fine condition.
