Its realistic effect gives me an instant flashback to my youth, when I was at a New York Giants game.

Many years ago I saw this painting by Stevan Dohanos in Cooperstown and I searched for a copy of it. Eleven years ago,
I acquired this Saturday Evening Post that featured it on its cover.

The Polo Grounds enkindle some very fond memory's from my youth........

I saw Bobby Thomson's "shot heard around the world" in the 1951 NL Playoff game.

Also, saw Willie Mays' great catch in the 1954 Word Series. And, many more such sweet events.
