I never got to see Gil play since I was not born until 1962 but how I wish I had a time machine and could go back to the 50's era and live the lows and highs of being a Brooklyn Dodgers fan.
My father was a huge Gil Hodges fan and passed his love of Gil as a player and more importantly as a great person onto me.
Thanks for any help regarding the photo.

I sent you a PM on the photo. Go to Amazon and buy a book called "Praying for Gil Hodges". I think you will LOVE it. I recommend that book to ANY baseball fan. It bleeds 1950s baseball and is non-fiction. LOVED it.....and I'm a Red Sox fan!
Peace, Mike
