Been folllowing the Facebook page for a while. Incredible seeing the deadball days in living color. Am using this image of Matty loosening up as my computer wallpaper.

The Cobb is just incredible. The skin tones and colors look so realistic on this one.

A great photo of Walter Johnson with his daughters Carol and Barbara, March 1938.

Howard, I understand that Walter Johnson had two daughters (and three sons), but that one of the daughters, Elinor, died at age two from influenza; hence, your picture can't be showing both daughters. The other daughter, Carolyn, is the mother of Net54 member Hank Thomas.

My mom Carolyn Johnson Thomas and her sister Barbara Johnson Pogue. C. 1938 I would say.
