Willard always got it right! And this was no exception. Yankee angst has always been in fashion, as shown in this original sketch of manager Casey Stengel crying in his soup over the team's poor spring training. The artist's charcoal smudges and a newspaper editor's notes in blue pen accompany the cartoon poking fun at the Yanks' once-potent bats, and the comical portrait of Stengel. Well-kept 18- by 30-inch drawing is encased in plexiglass so you can see every wrinkle and pinstripe. (NMT)
