Zee answer
I can't even make the avatar bigger--I don't own the card (a 1921 Zeenut, identified by a fellow net54'er in a previous thread, and now conveniently forgotten). I chose this Zeenut at random when I was picking out my avatar from a dealer's website, as at the time I did not have a functioning scanner. Never have changed it, as that is the type of guy I am. At least I collect Zeenuts, so it does have some relevance.

This is the card that caused my jaw to drop when I was shown what was to be the start of my future collection and the beginning of my life in vintage cards.

e107 Young
Mine is an e107 Young . . . which is a card I dream to own some day.
This particular card came from the 2009 REA auction. I bet someone from this board actually owns it. Anyone want to own up to be living my dream? http://www.robertedwardauctions.com/.../2009/116.html -Jonathan

My avatar is "Bob Brown Bear". As some of you might know, my spouse Jennifer Ettinger is an artist who has produced a number of baseball paintings and other pieces of art. As part of a city wide public art project, there was a charity fund-raiser for Easter Seals http://www.spiritbearsinthecity.com
Bob Brown is the father of Vancouver Baseball, and is pictured in the Obak set  As such, it was natural for Jennifer to produce "Bob Brown Bear" as part of the project. Here's a link to a number of photos (127 to be exact) and a couple are here   After a summer downtown, the bears were auctioned off. The owner of the Vancouver Canadians bought Bob Brown Bear, and Bob is now on display at Nat Bailey Stadium where the team plays, and where much of Jennifer's artwork is reproduced for display.  To top it off, the mascot is now "Bob Brown Bear", and they even had a bobblehead night where Bob Brown Bear was given away (seen in the photo below)
