Does anyone have any early 20's photos of the Babe? Not even necessarily Type 1's, but just cool photos of him from this period. Most of the photos I see of him are from the late 20's or early 30's. Rarely do you see a photo of him from his colossal 1920/21 seasons which are often considered his greatest.
Thanks, Wolverine.

My Uncle Sam had that hanging in his den in Pontiac Michigan many many years ago and when we visited, I always looked at it.

When he passed, my Aunt Eileen, remembering that, asked that it be given to me.

He was a huge Mickey Mantle, NY Yankees, and an all around huge baseball fan that I am sure he had other things/pics/memorabilia stashed/stored away but unfortunately, with me being so young and being so far away, I never had the chance nor was afforded an opportunity to go over any of his stuff.
