Thanks for posting that link. I hadn't seen it before.

This one ranks right up there for me. It's a pic of my Uncle Sam with Mickey Mantle from the 1958 World Series.
My Uncle Sam is the man furthest away from Mick. Norm, his friend is the closest and Dizzy Trout is between them.

These threads are the best. Great stuff guys! That 1932 Type 1 Ruth photo is amazing. That photo of Mantle with your Uncle is incredibly cool as well, Irv. I would be speechless if I came across something like that in an old family photo album!

Does anyone have any early 20's photos of the Babe? Not even necessarily Type 1's, but just cool photos of him from this period. Most of the photos I see of him are from the late 20's or early 30's. Rarely do you see a photo of him from his colossal 1920/21 seasons which are often considered his greatest.
