The Outfield
We just picked this up and I wanted to add it to this awesome thread.

Here's one to revive this thread too. The same caveat applies: I'm a HORRIBLE photographer, and my basement studio doesn't lend itself nicely to shooting. With that in mind, please understand that it's not a good representation of the painting. Once I get it photographed, I'll post the professionally-done photo.
Another Conlon shot. Those of you who were at the National may have seen me working on it, and perhaps even threw a tomato or two. It's finally done, and after a varnish is being shipped out to its owner. Oh, and for those of you who are curious, in the late 30s and early 40s, the Yankees would cover the tops of their home and away dugouts with a huge red tarp during special events. In this case, it's Opening Day at the Stadium in 1939, and with the Sox in town, this young man is about to start a brilliant career.

That red background is a direct result of the dozen tomatoes I hurled at the artist, but missed. He's a slippery little guy, but he sure can paint!

Some of a group of deckle edged fan snapshots featuring the Splinter -Sox vs Indians. I believe 1947, the first year of the lights. Also, the year the first Hancock Tower was built (missing, off right field) and a very prominent structure in the early Beantown skyline. I don't have these in hand yet and can't date with certainty and any related comments are appreciated.

I don't have any Red Sox memorabilia.
But this link belongs in this thread. One of the coolest and most enjoyable photo collections I have ever seen - I am grateful that the time was taken to put this together..... http://www.flickr.com/photos/boston_...92772559/show/

Very funny, Joe. The link is for a North Korean gay dating service. Sheesh!
All kidding aside, everyone stop what you are doing and check out Joe's link. There is a fantastic bunch of deadball era BoSox pictures, most of which I've never seen before. Be prepared to spend some time. Thx for the link, Joe D.
