So I had the memories, the ticket stubs, the program, even the track event sheets with Lewis' name…and a signed singlet. A perfect framing opportunity for the man cave.

The good news - the buyer filed a case against me with Paypal, claiming that I had sold him a child's size jersey, and not only that - a NIKE rip-off copy! But I kind of get it - I'm a medium to large in a loose singlet, and I'm quite certain I could not fit into either of these. Maybe Lewis really did wear a child's size!?!

I just retrieved the associated paper items and will post pics when the frame-job is complete…for the few post-war non-baseball guys in the forum.

Where in earth did you acquire that?

Also.. please make the image of you in a singlet leave my brain and this world for ever and ever. Amen
