LOL Ted. Seriously, the position of his glove does not make sense to me if you think the card is vertical. One does not catch a pop fly with the glove turned in towards one's face, rather, the glove would be turned away from the face. In my opinion. Also if you assume the card is vertical he is leaning back at a weird angle and must have the most supple neck in history.

Oh so Dunn is making an over the shoulder grab on the run, I get it, now if only we could explain the strange angle at which he is leaning back and the rubber neck.

Craig....I was going to respond to Peter, but your pix of Willie Mays' great catch speaks louder
than any thing I could say.

But, I'll ask this, anyhow.

Hey Peter......

When you played BB in your youth (or now), what position did (or do) you play and how did you
prepare to catch a sky-high fly ?

Incidently, Jack Dunn played SS and 3rd base for most of his career. Therefore, you can bet that
he had to catch many a sky-high fly and his T206 pose shows exactly how he did it.

Ted at any position assuming I were not doing the Willie Mays over the shoulder thing and I was facing a ball coming AT me, my glove would be turned the other way. You don't catch a ball with the glove turned in. Would you? And note how if you look at it horizontally both his face and the glove are perfectly aligned with the orientation of the card. Coincidence?

So I'm the only person that realizes it's a diagonal?

That illustrates how far back he is leaning (on a ball coming towards him) if the pose is vertical.

I asked above but it got buried. Weren't all the cards printed vertically? If so, what is this discussion really about?

For me it was simply an opportunity to practice my limited photoshop skills...
