Jeez Mark. That is a great, GREAT photograph! I've never seen such a stellar early image from such an important game. That is quite spectacular. I mean, just look how much is going on there. An extremely historic photo from Yankee Stadium's Inaugural Season that also saw them bring home their first of many World Series Titles... and a Thompson photo to boot. It don't get much better than that!
Way to go Mark!
