A Different View Of Some Old Ballplayers

(click on images to enlarge)
TW: Ran across a site, Uniwatchblog.com, that obssessively documents sports aestethics. In this case they found someone who colorizes very old baseball shots. Colorization is not perfect but it provides an alternative view relative to the standard old faded B&W by which we can view most pre-WWII players. The above show repectively: John McGraw and Frank Chance, the 1904 NY Americans (precursors to the Yankees) and the Babe in his Red Sox years.
