Another picture of my favorite player in color, thanks Pete. That looks like a different B on Gil's cap.

THanks again, a few years ago on e-Bay someone was selling prints from rolls of film taken at Ebbets Field, I wonder if this is from that.

From the stress and intensity on Hodges and cox's faces, I would guess this was late in 1951.

This has always been a favorite picture of mine. It shows Gil's huge hands and features the satin home uniforms. I don't believe Wheaties was ever a sponsor for the Dodgers. They did have a cereal sponsor, but it was Post Cereals.
