I like the relative obscurity of it. I don't know if we need to highlight Ruth and Gehrig and the most well-known players. We are a bunch of baseball card nerds--we don't need to cater to the masses.

To us, these early baseball heroes are the Beatles.

Another vote for no pic on the front.

While I'm "voting" here, I also think the back would look better with much less dead space.

If we're going for an obscure "we're card nerds" image, perhaps this one:

They will be available in a thread I will post, once I get them. The front picture is going to be gone. I am working on getting a silouhette of the picture so it looks better. I have a white one but will need some help for the other colors...some poor pics...

Great choice Leon, just spitballin' here and keeping with the Beatles theme I'd love to see the Abbey Road album cover with Shoeless Joe as Paul McCartney.

Those look great....is that front logo gonna look really huge like it does in the image there, or is that just for illustrative purposes......PS - I'll take the white one, in XL.
