- Reason
- Very high quality and resolution portrait of a very intense looking Ed Walsh. Restoration of this image. The career record holder in ERA the subject is a hugely notable, Hall of Fame pitcher who holds the all-time record in one of the game's most fundamental statistics. This careful restoration very clearly displays Walsh in traditional portrait-EV style, but the intensity of his gaze also creates a very engaging image.

- I would not be surprised if he's chewing tobacco, but given his expression he's also probably a bit of a tough old arse and is pissed at being photographed. Staxringold talk contribs 19:02, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
- Seconding the guess about tobacco. Very candid shot: note the sweater slipping from his shoulder and the dark circles under the eyes. Also the knitted brow. Durova 308 21:05, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
