It's a pretty common image I think; in fact I have it in a small "calendar" size print. I like the size of this one though, and it's even pretty well framed. It cleaned up nicely; for 20 bucks I couldn't just leave it there...

F2F,
Great old sporting picture, I picked this one up a little while back myself. Thought you might like to see it. We hung this one in our new Murrysville home Game Room with some of the other sports pictures.

F2F,
Thank you sir for the nice complement, not sure how old the picture and the frame really are, but I liked it. The Antique shop where I purchased it from time to time has some real nice antique sports art, from my Grandfathers era and before.
