SOLD!!! Christy Mathewson Walter Johnson Paul Thompson
 

This has to be one of the most unusual DeadBall Era pieces I've ever seen. A must have for any former pitchers here on the NET, like myself, you can appreciate these grips. Most of these grips were shot by famed photographer Paul Thompson. Also, a neat must have for any fan of Thompson's work. Never seen another one!

Christy Mathewson
Walter Johnson
Chief Bender
Mordecai "Three Finger" Brown (and now you know why he got that nickname)
Rube Marquard
Nap Rucker
Marty O'Toole

This piece needs an antique frame job, and WOW what a cool sight that will be.

HUGE at 9" x 14"!!!!!! The below pix doesn't do it justice, must see in person! The details on the baseballs and the poor quality of them just shows this was deadball era baseball at its best.

$100 or Best Offer Shipped

Sorry, I think I overpriced this, let's try $75 or best offer shipped.

Ok last try, it's Friday!

You need a picture of 3 Finger Brown in your collection. It's incomplete without it.

I was at the Off Track Horse Race last night and I swear to god I walk into a conversation 2 older guys are having about 3 Finger Brown, seriously what are the chances.

They were also saying some recent guy on the Cardinals had a missing finger or 2. I don't know.

$35 Shipped!!!!

Hi Paul, is it glued to a cardboard backing or something?

Thanks!

Derek

No, not glued to anything.

Hey Paul, any idea what publication this came out of? Thanks!

No, it doesn't say anything on the front or back regarding that, my guess would be a Mid-Week Pictorial from maybe the Times or Tribune, or possibly a Police Gazette.

....and Sold!
