Nothing for me this time.
Congrats to everyone on their pick ups.

I won the 1927 Yankees team photo, which cost me an arm and a leg, but is obviously an important Ruth and Yankees team photo. This one looks to be in really great condition, and I've discovered that I'm much pickier on condition for photos than I am for cards.

Gary,
I think you did very well. Most of the 27 Yanks team photos I have seen sold or offered have been above $3k. I expected it to go for a much higher amount. Congrats on a great pick up. Best, Mark

Two that I won in Henry's latest auction.
The top image is an early (circa 1952 -based on the negative number), vintage and original United Press photo. An absolutely perfect and unimprovable Type 1 portrait of a baby-faced, youthful Mickey. The bottom image is a Type 1, 1956 United Press photo that illustrates the extraordinary balance and power of Mantle's RH swing as he crushes the ball for HR #46. I love this image. Note the contrast between his small waist and massive back as he completes his compact and powerful swing sending the ball 410 feet into the left-field seats. An interesting side note (from Mark Gallagher's book "Explosion") is that Mickey made an error in the first inning allowing 4 unearned runs to score. He did make up for it though with the 410 foot blast, a run-building hit and by singling home the winning run in the ninth. Have not been on the forum for a while and would like to extend my best for a Very Happy Holiday Season to everyone (especially to some of my friends that I have interacted with over the last year - Jimmy, Graig, Ben, Mark and Leon). Cheers, Craig |

Craig, that Mantle shot is awesome.
Looks very similar to the '52 Bowman card

Thanks Jay. It does have some similarities with the '52 Bowman but is not from the same negative, which was taken by Frederick Lewis in 1951 and is shown in the photo below from the Getty Images archive.

many thanks for the kind words.
No, I don't collect just Boston. Really I focus more on collecting examples from key baseball photographers, even more that centering on particular players or teams. I have several Burke, a few Conlon, a few Bain, a few Stein, one Emmons, one Leifer, one Dorrill, one Thompson, one Van Oeyen, one Wingfield, one Regan, one Brace---all framed!! And I'm still a type collector 1900-1939. all the best and happy holidays, barry |

Steve and Bob.. love the additions. Dimaggio with bats and those bums are neat(drysdale is crystal). John... before the CHICAGO Tribune opened, Hubbs was really really tough. They still are rare but just so happens right now a bunch came out at once. Great photos(I once owned them ) Mark... NONE?? Has this ever happened??? Gary, That Yankee photo is beautiful and I agree with Mark that you got a great buy. Congrats my friend.
