Kessinger and Monday are correct. The funny thing is I ran across DOn Kessinger on Facebook and "friended" him. Very nice man and I try not to stalk him. LOL

I bet he would love this photo

Jeff, that Collins photo is KILLER. I would LOVE to paint it.

Oh, and Randall, did you win that photo? I remember seeing it in Henry's auction (I think) about a year ago, and was blown away.

Hi Graig, no I didn't bid. I just took the scan offline. I collect scans that I like. I think it was one of the big catalog auctions within the last two years. Here is another Ruth you don't see often that would make a great artwork...

Graig did one of the Bambino's backside a few years ago. I'm looking at it right now as it displays on my wall together with my TYPE I photo by Paul Thompson.

VERY much agreed, Randall. I think that Ruth shot was from one of the Legendary auctions of the past half-year. I'm pretty sure it's from the Detroit News negative collection and the like. The majority of those images were absolutely killer.

And Jimmy, I still think the photo's better than the painting. Thompson had quite the eye.

Yeah I like that one a lot. but I love seein that #3 for some reason. Here is a pic of me wearing the #3 standing over right field at the last game ever at Yankee Stadium. I thought #3 should be there one last time.

Now that would make a killer painting Randall! With those cops there and the other fans wearing jerseys, and you standing out with that huge #3 on your back with the stadium backdrop!
