Great Ruth photo, Joey! I've not seen that image before.
It's amazing that that physique powered over 700 HR's. He must have had incredibly strong wrists.

Picked up this golf trophy last Sunday at the Alameda Point show...For as big as that show is I don't really find a whole lot there...stuff for my own collection that is...As I was walking the show a friend told me about it and that he almost bought it...Sounded pretty good the way he described the nymph handles and all....Half hour or so later I found it...had a pretty hefty price which was why it was still there...I see a lot of trophies but this one pushed my button because it's so ornate and because of its size 15 ½” tall x 15” wide…has a presence to it...couldn't find a makers mark but looks like something Derby would have made...I'd guess it's about c1910-12...After I got home I did a completed search for "art nouveau” trophies but didn't see anything that even came close artistically...Plus I like the Seattle Police tie in...
