Posted By: <b>John S</b><p>I had the opportunity to read Fleitz's "Ghosts in the Gallery at Cooperstown" this past winter. I had known that Elmer Flick was from the Cleveland area but was not aware that he was burried in a cemetery three miles from my house. I had a little free time this morning so I visited the cemetery, paid my respects, and took a couple pictures to share. <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1151686884.JPG"> <br /><br /><img src="http://www.network54.com/Realm/tmp/1151686923.JPG">

Posted By: <b>T206Collector</b><p>Just received this one yesterday. Easily the best SGC 50/VGEX/4 I own. I think there is a smudge on the back that brought this one down from a 60 to a 50...<br /><br /><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c322/T206Collector/T206%20Collection/Flick.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket - Video and Image Hosting"></a><br /><br />
