Default My new favorite photo.

Okay, so many of you know I collect Lou Gehrig stuff, amongst other things. Somewhere along the way, due to Jimmy's corrupting influence and damn enthusiasm, I got into photos. Type 1, original, or whatever you want to call them, they're all good.
Usually, I prefer pics of him younger, playing, or with family/kids, smiling and projecting the warmth that he became beloved for.

So I found this one and was so moved that I had to buy it. I think it's a type 1, but didn't see the back, but it doesn't matter. I wanted it anyway.
There is something very special about it, almost ethereal.



The kids standing in front of him with there gloves and a ball. I don't know...It just struck me.

Wanted to share.
We could use a few heroes like Lou now in sports.
Best,
Mark
