    Thanks again Rummy for more fantastic work. This is the first chance I've had to have a look - top shelf as always.

    Brilliant work Rummy, thanks for all your time and effort, I've really enjoyed participating.

    Fitz and Gans clear winners of the respective decades so far. As disappointed as I am by McFarland's exclusion from the 1910s, I'm pleased Tommy Ryan, who i feel is often overlooked, gets in both decades, including a 2nd for the 1890s. Never more than a natural WW, where he is unbeaten, he dominated at MW, good to see him get well deserved credit here.

    Thanks for your input also Greg - and the other members who contributed - all pulled together and succinctly focused into an excellent and informative vid package by Rummy.

    Fitz and Gans are highly well informed selections.

    Rummy has a great voice for narration - probably just me but I’ve told him before he has a Jack Nicholson vibe to his timbre and delivery.

    I tested my perception against that of my Mrs without preempting her - and she said Rummy sounds like John Wayne! Lol, either way, his voice is in good company.

    Agreed, and whilst it hadn't occurred to me previously, there is a Nicholsonesque quality to his dulcet tones.

    So far our picks for the number one are almost unanimous. I wonder what decade will break that trend.

    The next one, the 1910s. Greb will probably get 1, but it will be far from unanimous
