Ps: If you won the lot with Aaron batting and want to sell the two of Red please reach out.

Now a contribution:
Group of Cubs On Catalina Island. The only one I can ID for sure is Joe Munson, far right (who's estate this came from). Naturally I love the sweaters and setting. Walking around Catalina island after a day's training on the field no doubt felt like a fairy tale.

Totally agree on the prices. I was an underbidder on the Williams. I really did not expect it to go that high. The snaps in REA over the weekend also were very strong. Then there was the Jackie Robinson in LOTG a few weeks ago. Nosebleed inducing.

The guy with the open sweater appears to be the second-tallest man in the photo. Hack Wilson was 5'6". I doubt there were three teammates who were shorter than him, even in spring training. Joe Munson, the player on the far right, was 5'9".

Hadn't seen this one before. After Sadaharu Oh broke Hank Aaron's career home record on September 3, 1977, Aaron and his wife flew over to Japan to acknowledge the feat. This photo is from September 17, the day before Aaron officially congratulated Sadaharu Oh during a pre-game event. In this photo taken at the Tokyo Hotel, Aaron's wife Billye is just to the left. Sadaharu Oh's batting style was often described as a "flamingo-style" of batting (he always had his one leg raised before stepping into his swing), so of course Hank Aaron gave Oh a gift of a stuffed and mounted flamingo!

Default 1973 Vida Blue snapper w/ vintage signature

Here is a recent addition to my no-hit pitcher collection of snapshots.
Great action shot of Vida Blue in 1973 spring training.
Bonus points for also having a great vintage signature from the day after the photo was taken.

Always liked Bobby Grich; wish he would have remained an Oriole. Batting gloves in their
infancy. Snapshot Bobby Grich.jpg

Scott, I was the underbidder on that gorgeous Vida Blue snap shot. And Mark, I'm also a Bobby Grich fan. I've posted my snapshot of him below, along with some other recent pickups, including one of Nolan Ryan with the Mets pitching in spring training.

I have two questions for everybody about snapshots:

1) Does anybody know what a good substance to use is to get rid of the black gunk on the corners of photos that were in albums?

2) Has there been a big collection of snapshots that was recently sold off? I keep picked up beautiful color 1960s and 1970s pro quality snaps from an assortment of sellers, and many are mounted on red pages. I've posted a couple below.

And finally, since everyone seems to love Hank Greenberg, here's my latest snapshot of him. As an added bonus, the seller threw in snapshot of another player who turned out to be Charlie Gehringer.
