I got this a few months back already framed and matted. Without taking it apart it looks like it's on good quality paper so I'm thinking that it might be from a Saturday Evening Post (kinda looks like Rockwell's work). Has anyone seen this picture before and can you tell me where it's from? Thanks!

It is printed by Brown and Bigelow if I remember correctly. They did a number of similar prints with other people (Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig, etc). The artist was usually Medcalf.

Thanks Scott! Yep, I looked it up using the info you provided and it is indeed from Brown and Bigelow. I saw one on a 1962 calendar titled Warming up with Carl Hubbell, but the colors were a bit different. Which makes me wonder if this was from a calendar or a print that was later used as a calendar. Either way, I'm going to like it on my wall.
Thanks again,
Mike
