Because many may select the same photo, the back is stamped by your favorite photographer.
Who would adorn your fantasy press photo, and what photographer captured that photo?
I would love to find a press photo of Ruth, in his first game with Boston, On the mound, in pitching motion. Photo taken by Louis VanOeyen. VanOeyen because he was the first official MLB photographer for the American League, and his photos seem to be more rare, plus, the tone he uses, to me, has that early vintage appeal.

+1....I was just reading about VanOeyen and looking at some of his photography. I agree his ohotos have the some of the nicest eye appeal. A first year ruth photo by him would be my ideal piece to own
