    Alex, You are the master at incorporating cards and imagery together. It flows so naturally between you showing the card and then presenting the story. It doesn’t feel like I am watching a PowerPoint or pieced together footage to tell the story. You have a gift but you always seem to push yourself to be better. A great example of that is the ending where you show the other cards. I respect and appreciate that. You know it’s good when the presentation almost makes me forget about the card which is beautiful by the way. Well done, my friend.

    Zack Wheat sounds like a player I’d love to have watched play baseball. Congrats on finally getting this beauty, Alex . What a great image!

    Love that image of Wheat. Definitely an underrated HOFer from that era. I loved in some of the other photos you used you can see the old Brooklyn logos on his cap.

    I think Zack Wheat really gets lost when we look back at the historic Brooklyn/LA Dodger franchise. For me he is easily one of the top flight players in the team's history. He was a lethal bat in their lineup. He came up as a youngster and still had his last prime year up to the age of 37. Great find with this pickup! I love seeing those striped bats. I've read so many SABR bios, I still go back to those I've read before. Thanks for sharing!

    • @bowman53
      @bowman53  8 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed - I hardly knew of him. Thanks for the thoughtful comment!

    Great get. I've had my eye on that card for a while, along with the Sisler Exhibits from the same set, also a horizontal card, but that one is fielding.

    Nice, Wheat's minors experience kind of reminds me of Ichiro, who was also told that his unconventional approach needed re-tooling.

      Yes definitely! Thanks for the thought Tony.
