Interesting to see where those drawings come from. I've always been curious at how realistic the images on the cards are. I want a Johnson eg, and can't see getting the 'hands on chest' because that person looks so generic. I am glad to see at least there is a reasonable match to the image in the portrait, and the real person!

Thanks for all this info. Hope more images can be added!

Hi Eric, Thanks for your comments. I was not participating in the hobby when this thread was active, so I missed it - very interesting stuff. Makes me think I should add the photographer and date to that page (when known). In addition, Mike recently sent me a great Sheckard photo to use on the site, which helped get me fired up at adding some more cards and photos.

If anyone has photos to supply, please send to me. Thanks.
