Printed in black ink on verso C: Arthur Tress \ I was never really good at base- \ ball. I was too nearsighted to be a \ good batter, too timid to be a cat - \ cher, and too afraid of pop-ups \ to be trusted in left field. There \ were no other positions left for me \ to play, and that's why I became a \ photographer. \ Gum bt Topps Chewing Gum / Litho by Mike Roberts, Berkeley \ © 1975 Mike Mandel
