Default You're a STUD Carlton!
As I became swept away reading your story, I felt as if I was right next to you as you discovered this tremendously important piece.

But the "companion piece" cards made me just about crap myself

Good work my friend... very good work.

Best, Jimmy

Default Yale Print
Great find Carlton and story. I am sure I would have walked right by that piece without noticing the Yale/sports connection, good eye. I love the high wheel bicycler in the scene.

Carlton

I wish I had known you were coming up. I always go to the Summer show so next year we'll need to hook up for a hot dog or something.

I also did VERY well at the show with both Sports and Non-Sports items. The Spring and Fall shows are not as good but the Summer one is always good.

I was walking around outside at the same time as you and probably walked right past you several times!

Default Irony at it's best!
I wonder if a Harvard alum is enjoying his Yale print that they won in Hunt's auction. Comparing the two items, it looks as if the Hunt print has been "downsized" to fit in it's original frame.

O for 3 by my scoring.
