Default Connie Mack Statue- Harry Rosin Prototype

Here's one of my best pickups for 2009. It is the prototype for the "Mr. Baseball" Statue from the renowned/deceased artist, Harry Rosin. The "finished product" sits outside Citizens Bank Park, and was moved there from the old Veterans Stadium (and Connie Mack Stadium prior to that). See Internet blurbs below...

This is considered Rosin's greatest work, and this smaller prototype Statue is pretty captivating. I was lucky to get (from ebay of all places) and think a lot of other collectors must have simply missed it...
