His T206 card shows him wearing a left handers glove on his right hand ... I am in search of the elusive corrected glove variation!
"Sleepy Bill Burns, the man who helped fix the 1919 World Series, could pitch with either arm, but did so only for exhibitions. He pitched lefthanded in games, then would work out righthanded between starts. He said that kept him in better shape than most pitchers."
Seems the glove was not an artist error but a nod to the fact that Burns pitched righthanded in exhibitions and between starts. So could be an ambidextrous glove as Michael said, or intentionally "wrong" glove to emphasize this quirk of Burns.
Bill Burns wasn't the most professional guy. Called "Sleepy Bill" because he couldn't stay awake on the bench. And everyone knows he was a crook in the Black Sox thing. He might have been out there playing with the wrong glove. They just added another thumb to the T3 version - Link to T3 card - www.tradingcarddb.com/Images/Cards/Multi-Sport/61748/6174...

William Thomas "Bill" Burns (b: January 27, 1880 – d: June 6, 1953), nicknamed "Sleepy Bill," was an American baseball player who played as a pitcher in MLB for five different teams from 1908 to 1912. Burns earned his nickname for his noticeable lack of intensity on the mound.
Bill Burns is best known for his involvement in the alleged fixing of the 1919 Chicago White Sox World Series, dubbed the Black Sox Scandal.
In his five-year career, Burns played for the Washington Senators, Chicago White Sox, Cincinnati Reds, Philadelphia Phillies, and Detroit Tigers. In his rookie season, 1908, Burns had a 1.69 ERA (sixth best in the American League). However, he had a career record of 30-52 as a pitcher and never won more than eight games in a season.

Tony Gwynn was inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame on Sunday. He was with one team - the Padres - for 20 years. He was an 8-time batting champ and is still an all-around good guy, as well as the head coach of his alma mater, San Diego State University. This photo was taken at the San Diego County Administration building.

This is a past self-portrait from my Daily Portrait Project, in which I made a non-photographic image of myself every day for three years, from 3/15/07 to 3/15/10. This series of self-portraits can be viewed in it's entirety at studiojuliakay.com/portraitproject.
This is my '93 Alvarez Commemorative guitar.
I bought brand new in 1993, in a Mexico City store. It is converted for left-handed playing.
This was my first serious guitar; it is still my favourite to this day.
Here you can see some of the conversion work done to the bridge.
The pins are new. I got them from elderly.com. The original ones were completely shot.
The end of a long day that began with what we hope is a final surgery on my husband's eye. This was a rather minor one to remove the silicone oil that has been holding the retina in place for the past 6 months. The doctor said the retina looked fantastic, so considering it ripped twice, we are very happy with that news.
The shirt, by the way, is one he had me make for him at my crystalwriter store at Zazzle. It has the same statement as the bumper sticker on the back, and this statement for a left-handed, right-winged patriot on the front.
Clearly I am much better at drawing with my left hand than writing. And I do think it should be write with your WRONG hand. All those left-handers are going to be cheating. lol.
Removing the Glove is a short play about left-handed people but is really a clever allegory about homophobia toward gay and lesbian teenagers in high school.
The Drury Drama Team of North Adams, Massachusetts was one of the first groups to perform this important work.
It was performed at the International Thespian Festival in Lincoln, Nebraska
International Thespian Society Troupe # 5135. It then went on the road to schools in Western Massachusetts.
The author is Clarence Coo. He was a college student at the time.

Prince Fielder at bat vs the San Diego Padres on 8/14/08. The Padres beat the Milwaukee Brewers 4-3. Peavy go the win and Hoffman go the save.
Another School Photo. Miss Cochrane's Class, 1961 I think.
I have been sitting here looking at this picture and trying to remember their names - with limited success, but here goes:
Back Row: ? - ? - ? - Brian Faulkner - Peter Smith? - Richard Baines - ? - Tony Hourihane - ? - ?.
Middle Row: ME - ? - Norma Rafferty - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - Richard Betts:
Front Row seated: ? - ? - ? - ? - ? - Isobel Moore - ? - ? - June Blockwell - ? - Rosemary or Rowena Bazelle - Jane Williams.
Seated Floor: ? - ? - ? - ? - Michael Ryan.
Rosemary and Rowena Bazelle were identical twins, who were in the same class as me. But as there is only one of them in this picture, the other must have been off school that day for some reason. Both twins are in this picture taken two years earlier.
Day 8
I write. A LOT.
These pages are photo notes, a list of potential instructors for next quarter, random observations, and bizarre quotes from Angela Kelly.

I went to visit Chicago. To make life easier my dear friend Emily gave me one set of the keys to her home. I left Chicago with these keys still in my pocket. I met Emily back in Cleveland (she had to comeback for various reasons) and I entirely forgot that I had her keys in my pocket. So, they still had to be returned. But at this point it had taken so long that simply mailing them was far to boring an option. So I made this card.
I submit this as the cutest way forgotten keys have ever been returned.

I was frazzled because although Rawlston has been better about his music, he doesn't seem to have the general idea: don't make so much noise partying at 3 AM that you wake your neighbors. And last night he was at it again. *sigh*. We'll keep trying to work with him...
Today's Commentary
I'm happy to say he has since moved away.
This is a past self-portrait from my Daily Portrait Project, in which I made a non-photographic image of myself every day for three years, from 3/15/07 to 3/15/10. Soon they'll all be loaded on flickr, you can find them in this set: www.flickr.com/photos/juliakay/sets/72157619599543783/
The first year of the project is now available as a book: www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/2418516

A favorite part of my weekday afternoons...opening up the little man's backpack after school (I suspect this daily ritual might change say, when he's a teenager). Today I was treated to Kermit...along with his little nephew Robin. I've always loved The Muppets, but found Robin to be especially adorable.
1970s fashions!
Plain black trousers, blue/black tank-top with diagonal stripes, blue/grey/black check jacket and (mercifully not visible here) grey paisley tie.
Oh...and a striped shirt as well!
Is there a "Did I Really Wear That?" Group that I could post this to?
This left-handed Fender Jazzmaster was built in Japan and purchased from Hewitt's Music in Dearborn. It was the first 'serious' guitar I ever had, and still finds a way to remain my main instrument to this day. Since ~1996 or so, it's been on every recording project and live show we've done. While the factory setup wasn't bad, the overall Jazzmaster architecture was indeed difficult to live with on a daily basis. As such, I've had the help of some of the finest guitar minds I know (Bernie Hamburger, Tom Murrary) in turning this into a much more steady and dependable instrument. Via a few somewhat unconventional modifications (including the brass bar you see on the tailpiece), this is a Jazzmaster that plays like no other. Tom Murray acquired the silver bridge cap from an original '60s Jazzmaster at some point along the way, and my (now-less-punctured) left hand has been thankful ever since.
