A few were but I think it's more the negatives as you say I love the mitts in the back pockets, the catcher's half squats. These were the pictures I grew up looking at, the 20's and 30's mainly. Hearing my father talk about Hornsby, Cobb (Boss' great uncle was one of the few ballplayers at Cobb's funeral, a pallbearer, ex-roommate in Sally League), Wagner, Foxx, Ruth...he lived in Boston, NYC, St. Louis and used to run cokes, shine shoes, got to mingle with both clubhouses for three or four years.
