Mark, great detective work placing the two images together. I always thought the Thorpe and Fletcher images looked especially funky on the T200 and now I know why. It was a pretty good hatchet job on Thorpe--look at his right shoulder seam of the jersey, they didn't even try to make them line up. Also, talk about indignity, getting your head placed on the body of an aging Wilbert Robinson could make anyone a little self-concious.

Also just to add something else...not only did they use Ames' body to turn him into Art Fletcher, they also used his body to put McGraw into a jersey (looka t foot placement and hand placemnet--they are the same)
