Love the Pittsburg fishing pic!

Something for my Black Sox pile. Season tix to Spinner's games. And an old Xmas photo.





*Background on the Santa Clause's photo. Taken by famed sports photog. Wm C Greene, at Jim Kelly's 'Mirror Room' in Greenwich Village. The Babe and Tony "Two-Ton" Galento were the MC's. Shoulda known these elves were up to no good... Hmmm, Could it have been the annual Bombers Xmas party?

Also, this is building still stands 181 Sullivan St. and is located a few buildings down from my son's old college apt at 149. It's a small, small world.

An exerpt from Bill Treadwells book on growing up in pre-WW2 Greenwich Village, 'Give it to me Easy' 1944;
