Default Aesthetically pleasing photos in my collection

Here are a few of my fav's:

-Jess Barnes no-hitter 1922

-Lon Warneke- George Brace original

-Johnny Vander Meer 1938 at Crosley Field

-Johnny Vander Meer 1938 in repose 6/17/38 at Ebbetts Field, NY

- Sandy Koufax 3rd no-hitter 1974 at Philadelphia

- Nolan, Tricky Dick and The Singing Cowboy 1973 in Gene Autry's "Luxury Suite" at the Big A- Anaheim Stadium. Remember 1973 is the year of Watergate. This is right before shit hit the fan...

-Nolan Ryan 1st no-hitter action photo 5/15/73 at KC. 4 days before this, Nolan had perhaps the worst outing in his ML career up to that point. He didn't make it out of the 1st inning before getting run off the field. The next day, May 12, 1973 at Anaheim, Nolan begged the Angels manager to allow him to come off the bench in relief. He figured out the mechanical breakthrough that led to his 1st no-hitter on 5/15 and the rest is HOF history.
I love this photo!
