John Rogers - Slightly OT

Thanks for link. Super good stuff!

The one thing that stood out was the issue that photographers would take hundreds of photos at an event and only publish one or two. Undoubtedly he has a vast treasure of unpublished historic sports photos.

I recall reading that the famous photo by a Pittsburgh Post Gazette photographer of a bleeding YA Tittle kneeling in the endzone after getting pummeled by John Baker of the Steelers was passed over by the sports editor. But as they say, the rest is history.......

but I have been told by a friend of mine who produces player-licensed photos that Y.A. actually likes that photo and has requested that photo for his appearances.

Neat clip...never really thought about this.

I bought an original photograph of Joe D. and Marilyn which was published in the Detroit newspaper at the 2011 National and only wish I had purchased more sports-related photographs.

He sent me this exact photo when I mailed him an autograph request.
