An article on REA's record selling auction where a crease free Wags sold for $119 and a 14' Balt Int'l Ruth for 27K...as well as the 5 cobb/cobb backs...what an auction!!!!

As well as a great article on 19th c trade cards...overall a great issue...cjhock full of great stuff...BUT...there is no mention whatsoever of the image gracing the cover.

Those were the days and we didn't even know it.

Sorry, but in the immortal words of Bluto Blutarsky, "nothing's over... 'til we say it's over."
Not Wagner... not Tinker... but either Honus O'Brian or Honus Harrelson.

Now that's funny.

This very much reminds me of the Marquard Youth's Companion that has been known as Babe Ruth Youth's Companion forever. We found the exact same pose and some folks still don't believe it. Whatcha' gonna do?

NOPE! But I must admit, that threw a monkey wrench in my thoughts at the time. I just found this; apparently, a lot of different pennants those years featured the same image (link below). Tinker never played for the Braves.
