There are (as I'm sure you know) certain players who, for reasons unknown, just do not exist in quality color images. In Throop's case, despite pitching in parts of 4 seasons for the Royals--in color--there's his quarter of a rookie card, the All Time Royals set and, IIRC, a badly out of focus no cap Omaha shot. There are a couple of nice B&W, which others have colorized nicely, but that's it. This is certainly the first we've seen of him from the Vault. And, as Merkle points out, we're still looking for a color Astros image of the man.
