Here are two random ones that I would love to paint at some point:





That Ruth image would look incredible at a large, mural size. I guess I'd just have to be able to fit it through my door first.

Esxcuse my ignorance but what stadium is that Ruth photo taken in? That looks nothing like Yankee Stadium and I just cant place my finger on where it would have been taken at!

It's the Polo Grounds. The Yankees played there 1913-1922.

How about a smiling Eddie Gaedel looking up to a smiling Bill Veeck as they're giving each other a wink and the "ok" sign while standing in the batters box?
