I had been through LOTG on line at least 50+ times, had like 15 bids down, and I never made the connection Ben made. It's pretty great. Here's the link to the uniform catalog (look at Ruth picture) and my photo. Ben, I owe you a few drinks at the National. You have a better eye for this stuff than I do. Very happy to have this.

Glad you won it and so so cool with your photo. I also assume this means I will never be able to pry that photo from you...
..ha! What a wonderful /rare /early type 1 batting pose. Will you frame together or side by side?
I picked up a couple photos including this one; beat but still very rare. A little restoration and thoughtful frame job and this one comes to life I think. Or.. I’ll prob do nothing and just dream about it..
