I understand that some folks may have had problems connecting through the links I posted to my Sullivanshrine (see previous thread http://www.net54baseball.com/showthread.php?t=142322 ) so here are shots of a few favorite pieces of my great grandfather from my collection.

I have an old photo of your great grandfather in my collection. I will dig it out & post a scan of it for you tomorrow.

That's really neat. Thanks. I've never seen a shot with his name on his hat like that.

I have a T3 but it's not in anywhere near as good condition as yours, which is why I didn't post it. Yours looks awesome, thanks.

Thanks. That Sporting News card is in great condition. I have a couple of blank back ones from '15 and '16 but they're not as nice. Funny that it lists him with Detroit and yet he's wearing a Sox uniform from at least two years earlier. He was really just a coach by that point. I think he played in one or two games for the Tigers before retiring to an orchard out in Oregon near one owned by Fielder Jones.
