Ted - they threw the mold away when they made Dobbins. He was truly a "good man" in every sense of the word. Wonderful teacher and collecting mentor.
I think that photo is probably from the same golf outing. There isn't anything on the back of my photo, but here was another, where both Lefty and Babe are wearing the same clothes, in the last Yee auction. If I recall that listing stated the golf outing was either in Hawaii or SF on the way to Japan on one of the Goodwill Tours.
May be hard for some of the younger guys to fathom, but all that talent traveled to Japan on trains and boats. It was a VERY long journey.
