I'm glad I clicked on this thread - the artwork here is amazing!

JC Leyendecker 22x28 lithograph titled, "Is He Safe - Or Out?", that was printed from the original painting that was featured on the cover of the April 1910 issue of The Popular Magazine published by Street & Smith. Litho was produced by Close, Graham and Scully, Inc for Street & Smith and is one of only (2) known in existence, the other is a part of the Leyendecker Collection on file at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This particular lithograph hung in Cleveland Municipal Stadium's Stadium Club Restaurant during the 1970's and was obtained by a former employee of the Stadium Club. Measures a handsome 22" x 28" H and is matted and framed to measure 34" x 40" H.

Somewhat surprised that these got no bids in my recent auction. The complete set of PC 766 Robert Robinson Postcards four Baseball images. Produced by Edward Gross and Curtis Publishing whom were the owners of The Satuday Evening Post, of which Robinson was a long time illustrator. These four images were used on the cover of The Saturday Evening Post in 1910, 1911 and 1912.

A very cool group of postcards. I'd have been on them like a dirty shirt if I didn't already have a set. Surprised to learn that they got no bids, especially because it can't be ruled out that Honus Wagner may have been depicted as the batter.

Picked up another catcher magazine illustration cover from the Sunday Illustrated Magazine of the Courier-Journal, Louisville, KY, April 2, 1911.

I've been really enjoying everyone's baseball magazine cover art, so decided to dabble in this myself and find a few items to frame for my home office. I picked up a few 19th century mags as a starting point on ebay.

-1891 Once A Week Magazine, with baseball scene captioned "Out on a Foul."

-1892 The Graphic Chicago Magazine, with baseball scene captioned "Baseball on the Lakefront - Safe!"

Would like to find a few more to compliment these then get them framed.

I just saw your post, those are both fantastic!
