The color on CalvinDog's Merkle are ASTOUNDING. That has to be one of the most beautiful color backgrounds extant.

As an aside, Ive always been fascinated by that play, and the fact that the Giants still couldnt win any of the other games that last week that would have won them the pennant. Its sad in a way that a play like that has such an infamous place in baseball history, when it and of itself did not cost the Giants the pennant.

I'll pass on posting an image of Merkle. He was much more of a person than just a guy remembered for one event. The poor gentleman is buried in an unmarked grave as a result.

I realize it's not pre-war, but this card needs to be posted:

Scott,

Jeff just love it when any board member uses the word "extant." Any chance you could throw in a "penultimate", too?
