I won 't show the H and B bat train again as I just showed it but here are a few....

I have only recently begun picking up photos...in many cases I'm not even sure what draws me to them, but they are unlike any of the other things I collect. I am solidly a "black and white" guy, though...no interest in color photos...even of more modern players...anyway, here ya go...

An Old Timer's Game photo from Braves Field in 1930...
Casey Stengel tying Zack Wheat's shoe laces before an Old Timer's Game in the early 1960's...
and a recent pickup from Graig Kreindler of Tom Henrich after hitting a game-winning home run in the 1949 World Series...I believe my dad was at this game, too.

It was really hard limiting my choices to three photos, so here are four of my fav photos:

1) Bob Feller speed test 8/20/46 at Washington Senators- Type I photo. You gotta love the speed "contraption" device!!

2) Johnny Vander Meer high kick Type I photo taken prior to his first of two consecutive no-hitters in 1938.

3) A 9 1/2" x 14" Type I photo taken of Nolan Ryan during game 3 of the 1969 World Series. This was Ryan's only trip to the World Series in his great 27 year career, and this is the one of two action images that I have ever seen to this game. I love the World Series bunting in the background at Shea!

4) An original 3" x 3" snapshot of fresh-faced Mets rookie Nolan Ryan taken out in front of Shea Stadium in 1968. The photo was also signed in vintage ball point pen circa 1968. I bought this great snapshot from net54's own Jimmy (The King of Clout). Thanks again, Jimmy!! This still remains one of my favorite early images of Nolan.

1. Tommy Bridges on the 1924 Gordonsville High School Baseball team. I graduated from Gordonsville 77 years later. A relative on my mother's side, Charlie Gwaltney, is 3rd from the left on the bottom row with the catcher's mitt.

2. Tommy Bridges and Daffy Dean shortly before game one of the 1934 World Series. They would face each other in game three. A 4-1 St. Louis win.

3. 1929 Portrait of Tommy Bridges as a member of the Evansville Hubs.

We aren't really collectors of photos the way many of you here on the forum are, but, from time to time, we run across some photographic images that we'd like to add to the collection...here are a few tin type examples.
