Does anyone have a full-sized version of the photo?

Thank you
My personal opinion would be that it's a photoshopped deal, though I can't be certain without seeing a larger version. That said, Bob does have access to some images that none of the rest of us have seen. And we do know that Joe was photographed by Topps as a Met, as his capless '69 Twins card certainly appears to be from Shea. But, if its a Topps image, it's not one that's been released through their eBay sales. Most of us are making do with the horrible Brace or creating our own. Be it photoshopped, Topps, or something else entirely, I do not believe that image has ever appeared anywhere "in the wild" (as is said).

But I'm more than happy to be wrong about that, if someone knows something I don't.
