Mark. Those Perez/Perez paintings are just fabulous. How did you acquire the first one?
Rob D. Boy do I love that Darvas. I have a Lou Darvas of the Bambino swinging in a tribute that came out in the Sporting News in 1948 the day before Babe Ruth Day at the stadium. It hangs in my living room (no wife). However my girlfriend is coming out from China tomorrow and maybe I can get her to take a picture of it and load it into my laptop. Darvas was a great cartoonist for sure. This original drawing is from the Topps Vault and was featured on the back of Maris' 1966 Topps card: maris1966origart.jpg backofrogermaris1966TOPPScard.jpg Keep the art coming guys...

At some point, I'll have to take a photo of my Darvas drawing of Rocky Colavito and post it here. Max |

Jimmy:
We really have some similar taste... I also have an original Mullin of the Bum and the same type of Topps Cartoon art. I will try to dig both up, and post them before too long. Regarding the first Perez painting, it was also acquired from REA in the same auction. They had so many Dick Perez originals offered at once, that the prices remained fairly low. It was a unique opportunity, and in retrospect, I wish I tried harder for a few more. The only other piece I acquired at the time was the original Ty Cobb Watercolor used to make his Greatest Moments Card. A beautiful piece, which I sold a couple of years ago. |

Willard Mullin original from the Sporting News. GM Eddie Collins doesn't think a young Stan Musial measures up to Ted Williams.

A large 2' X 3' original wooden Bas-relief sculpture of Yankee Stadium by noted folk artist Harry Glaubach. (the picture really doesn't do it justice)
A nice article about the artist... http://tinyurl.com/lf5hg4 harryglaubach.jpg |
