|  1904 Harvard baseball team- gay? 
			
			I don't understand the title. Are they trying to attract gay men or collectors? (being serious here)  I don't get it.....I mean, I guess they are nice looking guys ....not that I am of that persuasion (I am not saying anything against it, I am a live and let live sort of person).  I just don't understand the reason for for the title.  edited to add, yikes, I just saw the name of the company/seller's tagline selling it....ok, I guess I get it... . http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-1904...item20cde7d543 .

			I've seen a lot of photos on eBay of young men from the turn of the century — often playing sports — with the word "gay" in the title. If it helps sell the photo, then I guess it's clever marketing. I wonder if it's the same seller ...

			I don't see Scott going for putting "Gay" in our titles in our auctions though   . I posted this thread BEFORE I saw their tagline....,but then just decided to leave the thread as I really don't like to delete threads. *unless they are accidental duplicates or something like that.

			i think in the context of the piece it has to do with the happy not anything with homosexuals but maybe the seller is trying to pull a bigger audence with the a key word or something like that.

			A look at the seller's other items suggest s/he is targeting a particular audience, thus the use of the keyword.  No different really from people who use HOF or Jewish in their card listings.
