Have a few matted photos with signed 3x5s that I've yet to get framed. Marquard is one of them.

So how many of us have presence of mind to remember that Richard Marquard was a southpaw??

The other Rube. My friends say that he looks like a clown. Kinda pisses me off, even though they may have a point!
