I must've missed this thread before. Great stuff.

Here's one I never get tired of looking at:



And a super rare Billy Taub Clothiers premium, ca. 1930:



One of my absolute favorite images, a June 21, 1935 Acme Newsphoto of Joe Louis, it has appeared in many books on boxing history:



1965 George Harrison:



1960-61 Celtics Bill Russell:



1961 Chamberlain, Russell and Cousy:



1984 Michael Jordan rookie year team issue:



1967 Dick Butkus team issue:



Young Rocky Marciano at camp:



Don't look back, America, something might be gaining on you:

Satchel Paige snapshot:



Biz Mackey in the California Winter League most likely in 1927:



The Cubbies on Catalina Island, ca. 1933, doing their best Seven Dwarves imitation. Heigh Ho, Heigh Ho, It's Off To Work We Go:

Wow, Adam...

Those photos are all crazy-good images of those icons. Butkus looks just insane enough to rip your head off, and Wilt looks like he'd prevail, even if the entire defense isolated on him.

And that Cubbies "7 Dwarfs" Catalina shot is priceless. Love the Bill Russell and Joe Louis shots as well. Great stuff!

Regarding the Dempsey/Gehrig Photo.... It would be awesome to drive by 41 East 42nd Street (presumably in NYC) and see what resides there now!

Well, here is a view from the rooftop with Babe Ruth sparring McGovern; Ruth also trained there. From a Mutoscope reel:



A few more:

Velox snap of Jimmie Foxx with the Cubs:



Sugar Ray Robinson, the P4P GOAT, in the army:



Gotta post this one: Dr. J rookie year team issue, destroying Wes Unseld for 30 in a Squires-Bullets exhibition game, autographed:



One more for now, 1967 NBA 1st Team All Stars, who I think match up well with any team in history:

This image is older than 1913. Based upon configuration of the ballpark it’s actually 1910 at the Polo Grounds. A fire burned down the grandstand after the second game of the 1911 season and the rebuilt structure looked very different.
