Denny's Police Gazette is the new winner for my tastes

Am loving this thread. Christy Mathewson is my number one guy.

Graig Kreindler painted this portrait of Matty as he was depicted in Benjamin Falk's cabinet photograph (posted by Paul H earlier).



The same image was "photoshopped" for his W600 Uniform version.



The image was used again to make his 1915 Cracker Jack when he was 35 years old.



This Paul Thompson photo, dated to the 1910s, while not a carbon-copy pose, might well have served as an inspiration for his 1914 Cracker Jack.





The same can be said for the 1914 E&S Postcard.
(I no longer own this item. Sold it a couple of LOTG auctions ago after having failed to predict the collectibles mega-bubble we are now navigating. My bad).

Dankz Doug!!!

I Openly admit that I have been gleaning from David
Evar since I've arrived here many moons ago...

David's cart(more like a Truck!) will ALWAYS be follow'd to see what drops off next...

I've been humbled by David many times to my delight

Here's an image of a Conlon Glass Negative of mine with Matty and the Giants mascot, Jimmy Grealish plus some pictures of Factoryville. The field at Keystone college and a bar downtown.
