...photograph of a scoreboard from a World Series game with Babe Ruth’s name on it, and autochromes (early color photographs on glass) by the Lumière brothers of filmmaking fame.

Norman, known as the Great White Shark, reportedly started circling Evert when she signed on to create tennis academies in his resorts. Now the twosome are sharing romantic meals in Sydney, Australia, and Norman has told Golf magazine, "We enjoy each other's company immensely." Apparently, jocks are more civilized than you or I: Evert's ex, skier Andy Mill, says he wishes the couple happiness...
