Subject: Obama calligraphy portrait
To one and all: My latest creation is a new addition to a series of unique calligraphy portraits that I’ve done over the years. My calligraphy portrait of President-elect Barack Obama “In His Own Words” is literally that – Obama’s own words, from his eloquent keynote address at the 2004 Democratic National Convention, rendered by hand in calligraphy, actually forms his portrait! An absolutely unique collectible work of art. Nobody else in the world creates anything like my unique calligraphy portraits. Other subjects over the years have included Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Malcolm X, among others. Prints are available. For an 11 by 14 inch print on fine parchment, suitable for framing, send a check or money order for $10 to: Jerry Breen, 816A Cinnamon Ridge Place, Cockeysville, MD 21030. Include your mailing address. For 3 or more prints, just send $7.50 for each print. They make great gifts. Thanks again for your interest in my art. Sincerely, Jerry Breen www.newbreen.com

Career highlights and awards
John Besson “Brewery Jack” Taylor (May 23, 1873 – Feb 7, 1900) was a baseball player in the National League from 1891 to 1899. He is often confused with John W. “Jack” Taylor, who also played in the NL during an overlapping period. His real name has also been erroneously published as John Budd Taylor in many sources, perhaps confused with the Minor League pitcher Jack “Bud” Taylor of similar period. John Besson Taylor was born in Sandy Hill, Maryland and moved to Staten Island, New York as a young child, where he played with would-become Major League contemporaries Jack Cronin, Jack Sharrott, George Sharrott, and Tuck Turner.
“Brewery Jack” was a right-handed pitcher with a career record and 120 wins and 117 losses. His nine-season career consisted of (in chronological order) one game for the 1891 New York Giants, six seasons with the Philadelphia Phillies, one with the St. Louis Browns, and a final one with the Cincinnati Reds. While an ace pitcher, Taylor was known for arguing with umpire calls and (as his nickname implies) for his propensity for drinking. Taylor was still considered active in the National League during planning for the 1900 season, but died of Bright’s disease in February of that year. He is buried nearby his mother at Fairview Cemetery in the Castleton Corners neighborhood of Staten Island, and was inducted into the Staten Island Sports Hall Of Fame in 2002.

* There is currently an open discussion as to whether or not Taylor was an alumnus of (or even a student in) Manhattan College; category status is pending the ability to cite a source on the matter.
