Man Ray those are some hot pieces but G K`s Babe as a Brave is an absolute show stopper. I can see him rounding the bases after his 3 homer game and going out the true legend he was ! Enjoy that bad boy for years to come sir.

One not often (or ever) seen.

Great piece Leon. Here's my favorite Ruth card and as far as I know, another unique one...

Thanks. It's an honor to have Graig's work hanging on my wall. I like to imagine all the hard living and untold stories that occurred between the first image and the second image...less than a decade in normal folks' lives, but, man-oh-man, he lived for the moment...and as Casey would say, 'He had a lot of them.'

Of course, the scans are from his website...since I can't seem to replicate the quality of the images with my phone...but, I will continue to try and will replace those images when I do.

I'll show some Real Photo Postcards I've managed to pick up.
