I have a very nice black light and that is all I can ascertain from shining the flashlight on it. I was able to look at the back by having it re-framed recently. I should have taken some photos of the back when I had it opened.

I guess you could have for future sale purposes but knowing you that won't be going anywhere anytime soon. Sounds like it doesn't have much restoration which is really nice. I mean....with a piece that scarce restoration doesn't mean a whole lot but there would likely be some who would be off put by it having a ton of work done.on it.

Picked up this Craig Biggio Gamer.

Here is my Adirondack bat rack. After a few years in the basement, it was finally rigged up so that I could put some of my bats.

Tom, this proves exactly what you were saying. A good friend sent me this picture that shows the artwork and the top left open for the movie Theater to advertise etc...

Dave (seattlerainiers) gifted this awesome circa 1982 Willie Stargell snap shot. Thanks again Dave that was very kind of you. Today I picked up this 1971 Orioles World Series button. I already have one. However, they seldom appear for sale so I couldn't resist picking it up. If there any interested Oriole collectors out there I would likely be willing to trade for a similar Pirate I need. If not I am pleased to have two of these Sometimes it's the little things that make me the happiest. Edited to add the pin just found a new home.

What an awesome photo to have!

Here are examples of both from my favorite movie of all time:







Not my posters unfortunately.
