Nice! How'd you modify it, out of curiosity?

Cut the backing with a Skilsaw. I've used a utility knife before.

Cut the plexi with a hand held scorer/cutter.

Cut the frame 4 times with a chop saw and reassembled. Any size frame bigger than minimum in both W & L will work.

This is an official 7x9 press photo from the 1948 Olympics. It is the medal ceremony for the weightlifting in the light heavyweight class. The gold medal winner is Stanley Stanczyk of the United States. The silver medalist, standing on the left, is Harold Sakata, also of the United States. Best known as "Odd Job" in the James Bond movie 'Goldfinger'. I got this in a small lot of 1948 Olympic photos out of England.

Dave, the Reds fans will love that jersey, legendary. I did not know about the 68 sporting news in Gibson's own st.louis, thanks!

Just realized I posted this to the card forum but likely belongs here. Oops...

I have been collecting movie posters for the better part of 30 years and have only ever seen 3 examples of this title lobby card for the film Play Ball With Babe Ruth.

It is an original release poster, but the funny thing is that there is some debate as to just when the film itself was actually released. The date that I have seen is 1920, but examples of the five "shorts" that comprise the movie are available on Youtube with a copyright date of 1932. Either way, posters from the film are almost non existent. Certainly far tougher than his other films Babe Come Home, Headin Home and The Pride Of The Yankees.

This will be available for sale shortly.

ODD JOB, love it, got an Odd Job statue a few years back for my dad for Xmas, thus I still see him whenever I'm over there.

Tom, great lobby card.
IMDB is pretty reliable and lists all five shorts as 1932:
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0751899/?ref_=fn_al_nm_1
-- although "Over the Fence" has a separate listing as a 1920 production:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3033860/?ref_=nm_knf_i2
as well as a 1932 short:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0134010/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_5

There may well be two different films with the same title, both starring the Babe.
