Hey guys,
Hope everyone's keeping cool as summer winds down. So, I got these three back from the photographer today. Actually, there were five in total, but the other two I can't show just yet.  Babe Ruth, 1928, 16" x 20"  Ed Walsh, 1913, 14" x 20"  Kankol, 30" x 34" I wish I had more of an idea when the Kankol image was from, but the information on the man is scarce. I do know that he was with the team between 1934 and 1949 or so, and that's a pretty large window. There doesn't seem to be anything in the photograph to give away when it was from. Anywho, as per usual, any comments/critiques/problems/whatever are always welcome. Thanks for checking 'em out! Graig

"I want the viewer to have as real of an experience with the painting as possible. Yankee Stadium needs to look like Yankee Stadium, and Babe Ruth needs to look like Babe Ruth." I think you have achieved this Graig!! I do have a question.....who are some of the players you would like to paint that are not "sexier" names of sports history. I am just curious as to who you would paint for yourself to hang on your wall if you had the time and opportunity. Keep up the great work!!

A little anecdote about the Zulu Cannibals- and a sensational painting, by the way- is that since all the players wore face paint and were nearly impossible to distinguish, the team would send their best hitter up like every inning and the opposition couldn't even figure it out. Barry Halper had some ZC posters, and I heard that story back in 1999 when I was working on the collection. Thought it was pretty funny.
