Love the sweaters many of the players are sporting in this era. Hey: somebody should bring out a retro line of these; sporting and practical.

Kosh_ms3, I grew up in Philly, playing and watching baseball religiously. When I was fourteen I read about your great, great, great grandfather. My best friend and I adopted him as an immortal baseball legend. We knew everything there was to know about Sherry Magee. I'm now thirty-eight and continue to be a HUGE fan of what he accomplished as a ballplayer. When I found this picture online I immediately had two copies printed, one for myself and one for my childhood friend. The memory of your great, great, great grandfather will live on in our homes for many years to come.
