A dude and his motorcycle -


So it's kind of funny I've had this post sitting in my drafts folder for over 2 years.  Back in 2014 Getty Images announced you could use it's images for noncommmerical applications on blogs and what not with proper credit.  I even did a blog post about it back then.  I also snagged this image to use for a post sometime, well fast forward to today and Tony L over at Off Hiatus Sportscards tweeted at me a picture of Robin's new Stadium Club card.  Which funny enough now features this image.  Tony wasn't too fond of the image and to be honest it took me by surprise when I first saw it.  It reminded me a lot of his 1992 Pinnacle Sidelines card.  Which might have been what I was saving this post for.  Anyways the more I look at the card the more I kinda dig it.  I'm a guy who loves the different and this is different.  I wonder if there are any other off beat images in this years Stadium Club?  I also thought this might be a photo variation.

And  I  joked that maybe if Robin is in this year's Allen and Ginter set he'll be featured golfing.

Kewl Free Stuff Man!



Mark over at Mark's Ephemera had a post about Getty Images allowing noncommercial use of it's images for blogs and social media by embedding them.  I had to give it a shot and found the great photo of the unveiling of the new Yount painting commemorating Robin's 20th year since retirement. Plus it features two other Hall of Famers and former Brewers Hank Aaron and Rollie Fingers.
