Scope and content
"Eating crow." The familiar expression, literally "eating crow," was never so true as in this October 20, 1965, studio set-up when a diner in colorful bib appears to be ready to chow down on a very dead black crow. His pained look is due to the fact that the Minnesota Twins were proclaimed the 1965 American League champions, a fact pointed out to him by his non-dining friend. The Twins, formerly the Washington Senators, had moved to the Minneapolis/St. Paul area in 1960; the ball club had not won a pennant since the then-Washington based team achieved that feat in 1933. Notes from the Richards Studio indicate the men in the above photograph were Jack Kenison and Mike Rourke, employees of Weyerhaeuser Co. (Names not in any particular order). Photograph ordered by the Weyerhaeuser Co.
