Default Anyone remember a guy from Flemington NJ who took photos with players?

Hi Gang:

I recall seeing photos from the 50's and 60's of some man from Flemington, NJ having his photo taken with ball players with a satchel type bag on the ground in front of them with his name and Flemingon, NJ on the bag.

Does anyone recall his name and/or have photos to post?

My mind tells me his name was Jim Armstrong or something like that, but I lost my mind years ago and never found it, so I can't trust it any longer.

Hoping someone here can help.

Thanks

Your mind is correct.

I have a dozen or so pictures of Jim Armstrong with players, most are signed, but only one of them has his bag in the picture.

That's Hal Stowe who pitched 1 inning for the Yankees in 1960 to Mr. Armstrong's left.

That's good. Great gimmick. Love how that looks.

Thanks guys. I was asking because I picked up the below and the bag was absent. I never saw Armstrong photos without the bag. Think this is him with Ashburn

Wonder how many pictures he took and never had a chance to catch up with the player after it was printed, to get autographed.
