I'd like to add that the pick-ups so far are outstanding. That Chicks jersey is fantastic.

Default New stuff

1935 and 1937 Reach Guides. Both are Gehrig Covers.
These are the hardbound editions. I'm not sure how rare these are, but the condition of both is spectacular. Usually, I don't spend a lot for these types of guides, as they usually are available readily, but the exceptional condition really drew me to them.

Also had a big autograph pick up that I posted in the auto section.

Not vintage at all, but I won an online MiLB auction for two of my local Class A minor league team's game used hats from July 4th. I got them today and after the game, I had the players (one is hitting .336 and the other .306 and fielding like a madman) sign them under the bill. I also asked that they mark them as game used but I hate it when it says "GU 2012" on the top of the bill. So I asked they mark and sign it on the bottom.

Default 52 Topps image?

I just bought this 1952 picture of Hoyt Wilhelm. I thought it looked very similar to the photo for his 1952 Topps card. Does anyone know how much artistic license that Topps took with images they used in production? I am curious how much of the variation between the card and photo are the result of painting/editing. The Topps hat and jersey are obviously painted/edited. I highlighted the similiarities between the images. Am I hallucinating? Nonetheless I am very pleased to add the photo to my collection.

That looks like it to me. I'm not sure why Topps would pick a photo that has his eyes closed other than there probably weren't too many photos of Wilhelm around at the time.

I bet it's the same (or at least from the same photo shoot...)

Either...

A) Topps took some "artistic license" and just changed the portrait slightly.

or

B) There was a series of photos snapped during this "Photo Op". Perhaps a subsequent photo was taken just before or after yours (or perhaps by a different photographer standing right beside your guy).

The angle of the photo is just slightly different from the card, which makes this a possibility. Note how a good portion of the head and cap are visible behind his ear, on the card. In addition, his left cheek is not visible on the card, as it is on the photo.... indicating the card image is taken from more of a side-view.

I have 2 photos of Hank Aaron getting his 3,000th hit. Both are virtually identical, except for the slightest angle difference. One is a Malcolm Emmons, and the other is from a different photographer. But it requires the utmost scrutiny to tell the difference.
