Wouldn't you love to have the framed photos on the wall behind him?

Nice to see another 1930's bunter, and a Hall of Famer as well.

Can anyone top the four 1909 Obak cards that feature bunting? Breaking out the calculator, .053333(etc) percent of this set lays down a bunt. Sure, a ten card set that has one bunter would blow the 1909 Obaks out of the dugout, percentage-wise, and with a higher WAR #, and we will accept this, but hopefully folks can also provide other bigger sets as well that are practically bursting with bunters.

WOW. Both the Van Haltren and that Mitchell are the favorite entries on this thread. Are those your photos/negatives? Phenomenal. And yes, I'd LOVE to have that pano and the composite photos on the back wall there in the Mitchell photo.

I do not own these prints or negatives.
