Eddie Bockman, Cleveland Indians, 1947

You'll never see this pose on a baseball card today. Just one of the reasons why I love it.
Do they still make baseball cards, even? Yes, I'm that old.
And would you get a look at that glove? That's an old-timey glove, if I've ever seen one. There was a leather mit like that in my granparents' barn that got a lot of use, I remember. A big fat Charlie Brown special. Baseball's come a long way, baby.
