"not better"? Oh but they are, my friend! The second picture totally confirms it and the other pic and two videos clearly show my banner as well. Please PM me your paypal address so I can send a small token of my appreciation!

Two more things, Butch:

I can't access the ww4.hdnux.com site. Can you confirm the guy in the photo? I'm thinking maybe it's SF Mayor George Christopher.

Secondly, do you remember the search phrase you used on the sfgiantsphotos site? I had been to that site and found a few Opening Day photos but not the one you found of Mays.

Thanks again!!!! This is the thing I love most about net54 and its members,

Heck, now that Butch has me one the right track, I've found another. This is Mayor Christopher, with Nixon to his right. Case closed!

G-I-A-N-T-S appears to be BACKWARDS in the shown photo, but...not nitpicking - great pickup, and provenance - congrats![/B]

It's either the camera or the dopes put the backside facing out. The paint is just as black on the backside.

I love figuring things out, so after watching those youtube videos and finding a schematic of 1960 Candlestick, I've figured there were no more than 48 total buntings that day. 24 red, white and blue and 24 Giants.

Hi Rob, we're glad to have been of some help! We'd thought that maybe black-&-white photos or partial views
wouldn't fill the bill.
We actually didn't even search specific sites -- just entered [ "opening day" +"candlestick park" +1960" ]
in a Bing image search and video search.
Oh, everyone's coat seems to buttoned on the correct side in that photo, so it would seem that one of
the banners (a crucial and prominent one, no less) did get hung wrong-side-out...
No PayPal necessary! We're all here (or should be) to help one another, eh? We did just get some
bolt-from-the-blue horrific medical news here, though, so we'd appreciate any good vibes sent our way...
