OT Looks Like Cy Young To Me
 

But did he ever play 2nd base? I think this might require a leap of faith not for the faint of heart.

The guy running looks like The Professor from Gilligan's Island, but I guess that's rather improbable too.

No, not unless he was ambidextrous. Pix shows a lefty, CY was a righty.

and.......dude in pix is a pipsquek, Cy was a big boy for back then:

I think the guy playing second base is...the guy playing second base. And the runner is clearly the runner, photographically captured in the act of running.

When I followed the link, eBay Bucks were active for that listing. Since I hadn't gotten an email about eBay Bucks this week, this was surprising.

I thought they did away with those, aside from special promotional periods.

Doesn't even remotely resemble Cy Young. Might as well have said it was Charlie Chaplin.

That is sort of what I thought. Just made up baloney; a meat-like substance.

"you can tell these are them because of their profiles uniforms gloves and height all match up"

Well I'm convinced. :)

If the guy in the pic were 50lbs heavier...

I've always thought that Nat Turner is a dead ringer for Christy Mathewson. Anyone else made this connection yet?

Yes, I am too. And if it doesn't sell for 499 then do a BIN at 700...more sense.
Guy seems to have pretty good feedback. :confused:

Check out his other items. It's a variety show.

Leon, if you buy the Cy Young photo you can combine shipping. Buy the Lizzie Borden murder cabinet card. Maybe a sterling bracelet too....

:D
