Thanks for the responses so far!
Bob that Amarillo photo of Crues is magnificent! Let me know if you ever decide to part with it or find something similar to pair with the balls!
Another footnote in Bob Crues’ historic 1948 season:
Supposedly as the legend goes, in a June game in Abilene, Texas, Crues hit a ball that caromed off the top of the back outfield wall that should have been ruled a home run, but because the umpire couldn’t see it, ruled it a double. Had that early season HR counted it would have given Crues 70 HRs and more national coverage.
