You certainly do fine work, Phil. They're beautiful; the 1954 Bowman Hank Aaron really captured my eye.

I sure had a lot of fun doing a few fantasy cards in conjunction with my book on immediate post-war regional / food issues, NEVER CHEAPER BY THE DOZEN. With the help of an artist-photographer-computer graphic artist, I made two different versions of 1954 Wilson Franks Mickey Mantle and Jackie Robinson. Owning a genuine Wilson Roy Campanella made it easier to do. It's been almost ten years ago now, but I remember the project well.

Keep having fun doing your creations. All the best to you, sir. ---Brian Powell

A 1939 Play Ball Gehrig would have been a great send off. I can only imagine how nice that card would have looked.

What do you imagine? Would it be a staged "action" shot or a poignant portrait?

I'm thinking it would have looked a lot like the 34 Goudey, the one where he's got that big smile on his face. Something like this:

I've posted a link to this a few times in the past (too many times?), but here it is again. An eye-candy rich tackling of the missing HOF 'In Action' and 'Traded' cards from the 1972 Topps set...

Spelling "Yastrzemski" correctly without needing to look it up since the 1980s.

Some great cards there. I printed high end glossy versions of a few of those.
