Re: Great Baseball Photos (George H. Ruth's collection)

Just splendid photos. Thanks very much. I loved seeing the old-timers, including that fierce-swinging Honus Wagner. And also it was great to see, in his inimitable stance, His Eminence, Stanley (Cardinal) Musial.

I know this isn't a picture of Babe Ruth, but there was just a statue of him put up on ebay. Really neat one. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Babe-Ruth-Ne...item2a1aaabf89

Nice. I had to look up when the Bronx County Courthouse was built. "Between 1931 and 1934" ...if anyone else is curious.

Yeah, the Bronx County Courthouse (along with the Queens County Courthouse on Sutphin Blvd., in Jamaica,) was a WPA project. I dig the sculptures on the outside.

If only...

Maybe the Sox wouldn't have had to wait 86yrs for a title,

I'm almost a year late here but if it was built from 1931-34, it wasn't a WPA project. The WPA launched in 1935.

Photoshop?

I have had this signed photo since I was a kid. Anyone have a guess as to how much its worth? I know nothing about these things.
