Wikipedia:Featured picture candidates/1937 American League All-Stars

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Original - Seven of the American League's 1937 All-Star players, from left to right Lou Gehrig, Joe Cronin, Bill Dickey, Joe DiMaggio, Charlie Gehringer, Jimmie Foxx, and Hank Greenberg. All seven would eventually be elected to the Hall of Fame.
Reason
A high quality and resolution image of SEVEN Hall of Famers on a single All-Star roster. And that's not even counting Rick Ferrell, Earl Averill, and Lefty Grove (another 3 AL HoFs on that team not pictured). And another eight on the National League team. This was a really good All-Star Game, talent wise.

Edit 1.
  • Support edit 1. Put about eight hours of work into that tweak. Most of which probably doesn't show up unless you view it at 200% resolution. ;) And Nezzadar, it's impossible to reshoot this so small flaws in composition aren't such a big deal as they'd be in a shot of this year's all star team.
