Neal, a big baseball fan, flew to D.C. just to see them and came away with the inspiration for his magnificent book, "Baseball's Golden Age: The Photographs of Charles M. Conlon" and its sequel. That was also when Neal and I met, setting the stage for our collaboration with Larry Ritter several years later and a friendship that continues to this day.
