The Lowdown on Garage Lifts: Part 3
As we have discussed in previous installments, a home garage lift has increasingly become an investment that more enthusiasts are making. Assuming you have a minimum of 10 feet clearance, floor to ceiling, it enables you to store one car over another, while also offering the professional-style service assistance when it comes to working on your classic. And with an investment of around $2,500, they are great values that pay for themselves quickly when you consider the cost of offsite storage.
So, if you have the clearance space in your garage and the clearance in your checkbook, you'll need to weigh your needs against the variety of lifts on the market. That's what this installment is all about – outlining the different types of lifts and features that will match your hobby lifestyle.
Four-post vs. two-post
The typical garage lift that suits most home hobbyists is the four-post "drive on" type, which features a pair of ramps stretching the length of the lift. It's perfect for the enthusiast who wants the lift primarily stacking one vehicle about the other for storage, because the top vehicle rests naturally, without suspension droop that can be damaging to the suspension during extended storage periods.
A two-post lift is compact, less intrusive and better suited to repair work, because it "grabs" the vehicle on the underside of the chassis to raise the vehicle. That leaves the wheels free and clear, which makes working on the suspension, doing brake jobs, swapping wheels and tires, etc., much easier. A two-post lift is typically less expensive than a drive-on four-post lift, too, but it's definitely not the way to go if service work is secondary to storage. That's because when a vehicle is lift on two-post, the suspension droops, which can be damaging during extended storage periods.
110-volt power vs. 220-volt power
Most lift manufacturers offer standard 110-volt lift and 220-volt lift motors. If your home garage isn't already wired for 220, don't bother going to the expense. The conventional 110-volt motor (and commensurate 15-amp circuit) will do the job just fine. Yes, a 220-volt motor will raise your vehicle faster, but unless you're aiming for a world-record oil change time, it's no big deal. Also: the 110-volt motor can be driven by portable power sources, which makes it possible to raise or lower the lift if there's a power failure in your house or, frankly, you don't have a nearby outlet to run the motor.
Bottom line: Save a few bucks and skip the 220-volt motors. You'll gain bragging rights and that's about all.
Safety features
Of course, the last thing you want to worry about with a garage lift is the chance it will lose its grip, especially when you're storage one valuable collector car above another. To that end, you want the most secure safety latch available and generally speaking, that's the slack-cable type – also known as a slack safety lock. It automatically locks the lifting cable in case it were to go slack for some awful reason, enabling the lift to hold in place on the last locking pawl – the spring-loaded metal "tabs" that click into position as the lift rises.
Also, because most home garage floors are sloped for drainage, the lift you select should have adjustable safety locks, so that the holes for the locking pawls on each post will be even. If they're not, the pawls from one end of the lift will click into place before the other ends, causing the ramps to droop. It can be enough to allow the vehicle to roll of the parking brake isn't set or working properly. It also alters the balance of the car on the lift.
Finally, you'll want a lift that has a self-lubricating pulley system or at least one that can be externally lubricated. The pulley systems on most lifts – known as "sheaves" – don't have bushings or bearings or anything like that and must be kept well lubricated. And if you find a lift with bearings or bushings, that's all the better!
Just like buying a car, buying a lift comes with plenty of accessories to pick from – and if it doesn't offer them, the first and mandatory accessory you need is a set of wheel chocks for vehicles stored on a four-post lift. If for some unforeseen reason, the ramps at one end drop, the chocks could be the only things standing between you and a headache of a call to your insurance agent.
Drip pans are another accessory we recommend for four-post lifts. They straddle the ramps, preventing fluids from the top vehicle dripping onto the one below. They're cheap insurance, so don't skimp on them to save a couple of bucks.
Casters – wheels that allow the lift to be easily pushed around and repositioned – are also offered with many lifts and their value is determined by what you plan to do with the lift. If you've got a large pole barn and plenty of room to maneuver, they can be very helpful, but if you've simply squeezed the lift into your suburban two-car garage and don't plan to move the life again, then don't bother with casters.
We'll wrap up our look at home garages soon with installation tips and tricks. Stay tuned!
Just about every home-style garage lift is hydraulically driven, with either a 110-volt or 220-volt motor. If your garage isn't wired for 220, don't sweat it. The 110-volt motors are a tad slower, but do the job just fine.
A secure locking system is paramount and the slack-cable type is the best. It automatically locks the cable if it goes slack, preventing the lift from falling.
It's a fact of life: Old cars leak. That's why you'll want to invest in drip pans for the lift if you're storing one car above another.
Casters and other similar devices enable the lift to be moved around your garage's floor – even with a car loaded on it. It's not a necessary accessory for most enthusiasts, but a handy one if you have a lot of floor space.
Some lift manufacturers offer power-operated jacks that mount on the lift's ramps, enabling the car to be raised off the deck surface, for maintenance work such as brake jobs, wheel changes, etc. It's an accessory that allows a four-post lift to offer the convenience of a two-post.
There are a lot of small decisions to make when shopping for a garage lift, but the investment is one that pays dividends in convenience and storage value.

We've come a long way since Amazon Web Service's first cloud computing wave in 2006 and AWS turnover is now at $14 billion with Google, Microsoft and IBM all snapping at their heels.
open source
Open Source has become the technology that businesses of all sizes have begun to build their strategies around.
The days when apps were just built for smartphones is over now and we have a plethora of connected TVs, IoT devices in our homes, location based services, augmented reality, small business, utility, AI embedded and payment apps.
2017 seems to have been the year of DevOps so far but one wonders how many companies have been influenced by the hype without really realising where they should be heading and how.
digital marketing
Digital Marketing changes again? Marketing is an industry that never stands still and what is important one year has totally changed by the next. This year is all about Content and Big Data but as new GDPR laws come in next year will our world need to reinvent itself again? Certainly email marketing tactics will change at that point and sensible marketers will change well before the crunch date in May. Will these new rulings make us even more reliant on good content and customer experience? – almost certainly. It will also significantly change what we can do with our Big Data with predictions of 75% becoming obsolete. The GDPR changes should hopefully remove some of the more dubious elements from our industry and allow customers to receive the marketing that they truly want. It may even create a world where email becomes much less important and digital Content and brand influence is all – hold on – aren't we there already? Let's look at the positives and there are many. We live in a world of information overload and it's not always a great place for our customers, and as customers ourselves we all know how this feels. We're bombarded with huge swathes of information everywhere we go now and there seems to be no respite especially if you're one of the many hyper switched onto their mobile. It's not making anyone happy and stress levels have gone through the roof. As Marketers, we need to admit some responsibility for this and to start helping our customers, not making their lives worse. The new laws are about greater transparency, enhanced rights for citizens and increased accountability. Surely it would be good to remove adverts that are never opened or noticed, reduce the deluge of irrelevant marketing and to actually give our customers what they want. It's our chance to improve the industry, our brand's reputation and to send the ads that our customers are really interested in - the ones they will actually respond to. Our careers will be more worthwhile and we may actually save time and some of our precious marketing budget in the long run by focusing on what truly brings results. The price of leads may rise to reach this new nirvana but the quality will hopefully be worth paying the price for in the long run So does life go on despite GDPR? You bet it does! The creative marketing world as ever will change and is already changing. Content Marketing has evolved substantially over the last few years although many are still finding their feet. We've all learnt that we have to use content but it has to be entertaining and informative The race for innovation to find new ways to engage audiences is driving technology forward. Facebook and YouTube have introduced 360 degree video, although let's not talk about the annoying autoplay videos that almost made us shut down our Facebook accounts recently. Companies are trying to be creative with augmented reality following Pokemon Go but there is still some way to go to see truly large movement in this area. Immersive live video could be interesting but the key to innovation may rely on constantly adapting, changing and inventing rather than just following the crowd and every new shiny toy. Audiences become tired quickly of new fads and gimics – who is still playing Pokemon Go now? Does anyone get tired of being consistently looked after really well however and feeling that they are genuinely cared about? We should be focusing on how we can combine that with innovation Does Big Data become smaller data? Big Data has become a huge topic in recent years but many companies still battle with understanding how they can use it best. The Political marketers seem to have certainly understood it, manipulated it and run with it and unfortunately made the world a scarier place with their Big Data marketing. We should be putting it to use for the benefit of society and our customers. Personalisation should be able to improve customer experience and one to one marketing is becoming more prevalent as brands get to grips with it. Native advertising has meanwhile diminished and needs revisiting for the future. Maybe the answer for marketers isn't huge swathes of big data but more detailed relevant small data where forecasting can be used with more validity and we can all focus on doing what is right for the right customers at the right time And yes this stuff is still news Every year we all talk about Mobile and nothing has changed in that respect. We all know we need to be Mobile First and we're more glued to our mobiles than ever – this isn't going to diminish for the time being. The same with Video – it gathers pace and then moves onto yet another level. Look at Facebook – it's all about video now – which seems a quick change from a few years ago – and it is predicted to become even more video focused. We're still excited about AR, VR and the Internet of Things but we're barely off the starting blocks and we're going to have to wait a while yet especially if we don't want our washing machine to be over taken by terrorists or criminals. We've embraced wearables and they seem to be getting cheaper and better rapidly although the information overload when your wrist, phone and laptop all buzz in sync late at night can lead to yet further intrusion to our already busy lives. We were excited about Chatbots but they are beginning to be annoying already. The customer experience yet again looms as the key piece that holds everything together. It is not enough to just be there to talk to. The service must be outstanding too. Lets start understanding people better. Let's not just look at the psychology of marketing but how we can use the understanding of psychology to make lives better in a more meaningful and sustainable way. That should be the real future of marketing.

Vehicle Inspection
Description of Vehicle Inspections
Vehicle inspections help to regulate proper vehicle maintenance. They also contribute to safe driving conditions. A vehicle inspection may be required annually before a driver renews vehicle registration, or during the sale and transfer of a vehicle. As a vehicle inspection station, we adhere to a specific set of guidelines that outline our inspection standards. These guidelines go over important inspection items and describe the inspection methods we follow when determining whether a vehicle is fit for the road or in need of maintenance. For each of our vehicle inspectors, the main priority is to ensure that the vehicle is both well-maintained and equipped for highway use.

I am trying to install DSL 4.11rc2 into a Vmware VM, but am not able to get it to install to the hard disk. I have tried having both IDE and SCSI virtual disks mapped and have tried installing to hda, hda0, sda, sda0. DSL seems to format the disk with EXT3, install, ask for the bootloader, ask about windows, and even reboot. Everything seems fine but the DSL will not boot off the internal disk.
I need to make it boot off the drive (vmdk) and not the CD because I need to make 50 VMs as small as possible (no gui needed).
any ideas?

The idea of running a (more or less) updated Linux in an old machine and revive it is just AMAZING. I've been fighting with a Pentium III (512 MB RAM, 10 GB HD, 8 MB video card) with more than 10 distros and it is always slow... when it doesn't crash or give me a stupid problem (some tome no graphical login, root password doesn't work, no network, problems after updating some packages... etc.).
I have installed Wary, Puppy, (more than one version), MiniNo, ZenWalk, CrunchBang
Before that, I have tried many distros inside a VirtualBox machine in my PC, and since the processor is new, everything goes fine, even with 256 MB of RAM and 8 MB for video! But in the P III, things get
really slow
. The processor is the bottleneck, and perhaps the "not-so-much-compatible" video card.
Inside VBox the 3 versions of DSL (4.4; 4.11 rc1, 4.11 rc2) didn't let me use the mouse!!?? I'll try a live CD in that P III tp see what happens.
Did you really managed to run it in a 486, rittingj ?? WOW
I'm planning on using it
for good in the HD. Any suggestions, guys?

Bad news. In a Pentium III, still go the mouse problem (no mouse, no Alt+F2 response do write "xkill" or anything else).
The video started all messed up (greenish)and I have changed to VESA; the image got nicer, but no mouse, nothing
I guess one of the problems is the video card in that Dell PC from 1996 (a 3com or something). I'll check and post it latter.
The RAM usage is amazingly small (18 MB in a certain moment)! So I really really hope this version of DSL gets good and usable.

Which Pentium III processor/mobo combo is it? I have an Intel 440BX running a Tualatin Pentium III via a Slocket, and everything is working flawlessly, so it is to be something very specific to your hardware. Mine is using the original ATI Rage Pro video card, if that helps.

I recently tried out the DSL 0.4.11RC2 (as a liveCD, not any HD or USB install) on a VERY old (as in, it has reached the legal drinking age...) desktop and was shocked to see it actually load X
, quite impressive considering the limits of this old box
! I have however found a few issues as well.
The box in question has the old-school 486DX50 processor, from the time before the clock-doubled variety became more common. RAM started out at 8MB but has since been maxed out at 32MB on the mobo; there is a slot for expansion to 64MB but that would require a proprietary and undocumented card only produced by the mobo company that folded more than 20 years ago and I have never been able to find it. The mobo is a combo VLB (Vesa Local Bus) and ISA rig, 3 slots of VLB and 4 of ISA. One VLB slot has the IDE controller (dual channels). The video card in an ISA slot is one of the infamous Diamond cards, don't remember the exact model number right this minute but it does do 1280x1024, I think at 24bit color, in Win3.1. There is no PS2 port available, so the keyboard has the old style largish AT connector, and the mouse (a 3 button type, I think it takes the Mouse Systems driver in W3.1) is on serial COM1. And of course no SDcard reader, no WiFi, no SATA ports, no USB ports of any flavor, no FireWire, no AGP, no network card, no internal modem, no PCMCIA, indeed not even PCI slots and it predates PlugNPlay. There is a Teac 6x IDE CDROM (one of the older ones that were read-only, not burners, and CD-only, not DVD).
Normally it has 2 IDE hard drives, the original 210MB (remember when that much space was considered very generous?) with DOS 6.22/Win3.1 installed, and later I added a 6.4GB drive (and when this was unimaginably humongous?) partitioned 3 ways - one partition is a backup mirror of the DOS/Win3.1 install, one left mostly empty for data storage, and the third set up for dual booting Linux Slackware 2.3. However for the task at hand these two drives are temporarily removed.
BIOS does not support booting from CDROM, there is no network card, and the installed hard drives are removed so I have to use a floppy bootdisk (didn't see one in the RC2 so had to borrow the image from older 0.4.4 - hoped this would not cause any issues, it seems to have worked).
Speaking of BIOS, that is the reason I picked this geriatric machine for the task at hand.... malware cleanup. I wanted a safe place to run dd and zerofill a 80GB hard drive (out of a 2005 vintage IDE based laptop) without risk of infecting the cleaning machine. I had started out using a Debian liveCD with the HD in the original infected laptop but soon found out this particular malware will implant itself into BIOS. Simply zeroing the drive is NOT enough
. Even if the BIOS is reflashed afterward, if the drive is still present the malware may return. These parts must be cleaned separately before putting them back together! And that is the attraction of this old hardware... it is so old it does not support BIOS flashing (this old beast has a ROM chip - changing BIOS requires REPLACING THE CHIP
) and does not have any network card/wireless option ROM so the malware can't go there!
The X desktop is some weird ugly colors that don't have very good contrast or visibility - like dark olive drab text on a deep navy blue menu that is VERY hard to read. It doesn't seem likely that anyone would have chosen these as standard colors; I'm assuming it doesn't quite understand the graphics card settings with the default boot parameters. So I thought I would try to adjust some of the settings.
After a brief amount of poking around the desktop to see what is there I was soon unable to select menu items with the mouse. The cursor still moved around the screen and items could be highlighted, and I got a "clicking" sound, but no action. After leaving the desktop environment I saw a bunch of messages about "respawning too fast, disabled for 5 minutes" and also "no more processes at this runlevel" or something like that
. Could not do a proper shutdown at that point so ended up just powering off. Given the nature of my application, I could not allow it any swap space. I figured it had run out of available RAM so I tried to lighten the load.
Oh yeah, before I forget - while booting there was a point when it gave an error message something like "invalid mode" - after some tinkering I found the screen where it would list some video modes and want a number entered. The thing I eventually found workable was to enter "scan" instead of a mode number, this gave some choices that were not on the original list. I ended up using either "9" or "b".
After some research I found the cheatcodes I wanted:
dsl 2 fromcd dma nopcmcia nousb noagp base noideraid noapm noapic nomce nosound nofirewire nodhcp nosmp
This allowed me to work awhile in textmode without the "no more processes at this runlevel" problem. After poking around to find proper device names for the HD I typed
dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdc bs=512 count=80M
and waited a long time. After more than 17 hours (but less than 20 hours) I saw that it had simply returned to the command prompt without printing any exit status
, also no error messages.
Given the earlier problem of not enough RAM (?) for X, and especially the nature of my task, I was a bit paranoid about this unexpected behavior. Not the time (actually finishing turns out to take somewhat longer than that) but lack of the usual status output. I thought I remembered from poking around a bit with dd using count=1 instead as a test to be sure I had the right device name, it did seem to produce status lines (if the device names were right) that way but not for my big run - or is that just my goofy memory? I surfed around to find that the busybox sourcecode for dd should have printed some status lines on completion so something has indeed gone wrong. I suspect it may actually be a problem with the older 2.4 kernel, and dd calling kernel code that rolls over and dies at a 32GB boundary. This can be a MAJOR issue if anyone else is trying to use DSL for malware cleanup so I thought I should post here to make everyone aware of the limitation.
There was a liveCD of Debian Squeeze lying about that I tried but it would not boot... it gets to the point of "Loading kernel..." and then just hangs, it probably needs the full 64MB RAM they say is required even to boot text mode, but that I don't have. It does work in more modern rigs, just not my target box. (Also on newer systems it does print those status lines at the end of dd that have gone missing from DSL).
A couple more days of research on other liveCDs that might be suitable for my task turned up http://ttylinux.net/dloadPC-i486.html which I downloaded and burned to CD. I wasn't sure the DSL bootfloppy would be compatible so ended up using SmartBootManager (http://btmgr.sourceforge.net/download.html) for that purpose, it did nicely in case you ever drop the bootfloppies from your distro and need to recommend a substitute.
ttylinux ends up with the same device names as used in DSL, (for some reason Debian insists that the proper name is /dev/sda, not sure why it wants to be different on this) so I used the same dd command.
Waited a (very long!) while, and it finished after 50.33 hours and does indeed produce the expected status lines even on my old target box
. It also uses the busybox code so I think the difference is that ttylinux is using the 126.96.36.199 kernel (Debian Squeeze seems to be 2.6.32) rather than the older 2.4.31 in DSL.
If I assume write speeds were similar between DSL and ttylinux, then 20 hours would scale to about 32GB when it stopped, interesting since this was one of the older "stop points" in terms of disk drive sizes being supported in BIOS and other places. Definitely a small limit for drives today.
I guess this is all a rather longwinded way of saying I hope you consider upgrading to a 2.6 type kernel for your next release. Since the ttylinux download is only 13MB the kernel obviously CAN be made small with careful module selection that is still suitable for older hardware (granted you are including X where ttylinux does not, but still...). But if it REALLY won't fit your size limit for DSL, then at least for the DSL-N variant. Is saving that last 2MB really so critical considering the functionality tradeoff? Because not being able to zerofill even less than 80GB - which is a very small drive by modern standards - would seem like a major limitation for tasks like malware cleanup, or sanitizing private data, etc. Just thought y'all should know.

I thought I would try DSL. I have a Toshiba Satellite 2140 CDS with an impressive 32MB.
I booted from the CD and all started looking good. I got the following messages
Scaning for USB devices... Done.
Accessing DSL image at /dev/scd0...
Total memory found: 29232 kB
Creating /ramdisk (dynamic size=21300k) on shared memory...Done.
Creating directories and symlinks on ramdisk... Done.
Starting init process.
INIT: version 2.78-knoppix booting
Setting hostname to box Done.
Running Linux Kernel 2.4.31.
Processor 0 is AMD-K6(tm) 3D processor 451MHz, 64 KB Cache
At this point, it gives a very good impression of 'hanging'. I think it's stuck.
Is there something I can do to get it further?

I had gotten the same cant find knoppix file system error, using the iso + syslinux usb option - < http://www.damnsmalllinux.org/wiki/install_to_usb_from_within_linux.html#Method_II:_Current_ISO_.2B_Syslinux > the first time i tried to get it running, but it didnt happen other times i tried it.
Wanted to make a suggestion of the creation of a bash script to make it easier to get the iso bootable on a usb. I have tried other bootable distros like Salix and Porteus that have such scripts in their isos, in addition to having a usb installation text file in the root of the iso.

I think this project is well & truly dead - probably best to head over to tinycorelinux.net where the main developers from DSL went, or elase try puppy linux, or one of the other 'minimalist' distributions (basiclinuc, µlinux,....)

John Hancock, to be sure, was basking in a kind of positive association for telling the much-loved tales, and some of the ads ran with a shorter, adjacent-page column from a John Hancock official making a soft-sell pitch for life insurance. Still, the featured full-page ads were classy pieces of advertising; often done with a handsome original color illustration using known and unknown artists, some venerating history, individualism, character, etc., and most offering educational benefit as well. They appeared only once or a few times at most in the magazines of the day. Consequently, today, original copies of these ads are regarded as collector's items, often showing up at auction houses or on E-bay. One of the John Hancock ads from the late 1950s features the famous baseball player Christy Mathewson, shown above. The image is a close-up from its full-page layout, which is shown below. In the narrative copy for this ad, also included below, John Hancock offers a commentary on Mathewson's career and personality. Mathewson was one of the all-time great baseball pitchers who played most of his storied career with the New York Giants (also called the Nationals) between1900–1916. He was also one of the first five players to be inducted into the baseball Hall of Fame. More about Mathewson follows shortly, but first the John Hancock ad as it ran in 1958.
"He had more on the ball than a 'fade away'…"
"Part of the story is in the record books. Oddly enough, it began in the football book. Walter Camp made an exception and put an 11th man known as "kicker" on his 1900 All-American [football team]. The name of the man filling the position was…Christopher Mathewson!
"He's all over the baseball book, of course. A couple of no-hitters. The only man ever to pitch three shut outs in one World Series. An average of 17 big league victories a year for 12 straight years! … If you were a youngster in those years and dreamed of being a big league pitcher, you always imagined in your dream that you looked like Matty. For he was the image of all the story-book heroes rolled into one. You'd lean back on the haymow and close your eyes and see yourself on the mound… tall, trim, good looking, confident. Then, while the crowd hushed, you'd wind up and send one 'swish' right over the heart of the plate for strike three. Just like Matty."No one could control, as Matty could, the direction a baseball would go. They say he could stand 20 paces from a barn door and hit a knot in the door 9 times out of 10. In three games in one World Series he walked only a single batter. One season he pitched 391 innings and gave up just 42 base on balls.
"But Christy Mathewson also learned to control himself. And that was probably a bigger contribution to baseball than the figures he left in the record books. His clean life, his ideals, his religious scruples (he never played a game on Sunday) had tremendous influence on all baseball, and all America. He proved to millions of youngsters of his day that you didn't have to be a rowdy to be a big league hero."
"Christy died in middle age, his lungs damaged by poison gas in France during World War I. A few years later organized baseball built a memorial for him. The last word on the bronze plaque has a splendid message for every sports-minded boy in America. It reads… Christopher Mathewson: Athlete, Soldier, Gentlemen."
– John Hancock Mutual Life Insurance Co.
"One quality seems to be common to most of the men who have been featured in our series about great Americans. In their lives, you can see CHARACTER. Most of these men who accomplished great deeds were also men of decency and honesty, and of perseverance.
"We have always believed that character is all-important in the life insurance business. Counseling a family on its life insurance needs is a serious affair. . . We go to great lengths to make sure that John Hancock agents have skill and knowledge. We are them with the finest, most modern policies. Above all, in their selection, we seek character.
"When a man buys life insurance for his family, this too is a mark of character. . . of how seriously he considers his family's well being…how willingly he looks beyond today, to provide for tomorrow."
Christy MathewsonThe John Hancock Insurance Company, certainly, was in the business of selling its policies in 1958, riding on the good name and reputation of Christy Mathewson and others like him. Still, the company did well in choosing to highlight Mathewson's career in one of its ads, for he was truly one of the all-time great pitchers in professional baseball.
During a 17-year career, Mathewson won 373 games and lost 188 for an outstanding .665 winning percentage. His career ERA – earned run average – of 2.13 and 79 career shutouts are among the best all-time for pitchers. And his 373 wins is still No. 1 in the National League, tied with Grover Cleveland Alexander.
Using his famous fade-away pitch, "Matty" won at least 22 games twelve straight years beginning in 1903 – winning 30 games or more four times. A participant in four World Series, Mathewson set an especially distinctive World Series mark in 1905 when he threw three shutouts in six days against the Philadelphia Athletics. He also set the modern National League record for most games won in a single season; 37 in 1908 – quite extraordinary, then and now.Christy Mathewson, however, was not typical of the "rough-and-tumble" baseball era in which he played – a time when many players were known more for carousing and fighting than playing. For one thing, Mathewson was a college man; and a college man who had a range of interests beyond baseball. In fact, while attending Pennsylvania's Bucknell University – in addition to playing football and baseball – he sang in the glee club and belonged to a literary society. A forestry major in his studies, Mathewson was also class president and a member of the Phi Gamma Delta fraternity. Football, however, was Mathewson's main sport in college, putting in three years as the team's first-string fullback, punter, and drop kicker. And those were years when Bucknell played top football powers such as Penn State, Army, and Navy. Sports writer Walter Camp, the originator of the All-America team referenced in the John Hancock ad, called Mathewson "the best all-around football player I ever saw." In fact, in 1902 after he had turned a pro baseball player with the New York Giants, he briefly played football as a "punting fullback" for the Pittsburgh Stars of the new national Football League. However, for whatever reason, he did not last the season there, either because the baseball New York Giants objected, or a better fullback took his place. Mathewson had begun playing minor league baseball in the summer following his freshman year at Bucknell, and would continuing doing so in subsequent summers. He played first in the New England League and then Virginia-North Carolina League in 1900, where he posted a 20–2 record, drawing the attention of big league teams.
In his first years in the major leagues, he bounced around for a time between the New York Giants and the Cincinnati Reds, but finally settled in the with the Giants where he would remain until 1916. With the Giants, he played under manager John McGraw, one of baseball's feistiest competitors, but a manager who also took a special liking to Mathewson. Through the years, though quite different, the two men became friends and would help change the game of baseball. Mathewson, for his part, would become a role model to young boys, a charge he took quite seriously, as noted in one statement he made:
"First of all, no one can live up to everything that's been written or said about me. And, I keep to myself. I'm a private man. Yet, because I pitch for the New York Giants, I realize that I'm able to reach more young men than the President of the United States. That's not due to the fact that I'm more popular than Mr. Taft – I don't believe – but, it's a fact boys would rather read about yesterday afternoon's event at the Polo Grounds. Because of that, I feel very strongly that it is my duty to show those youth the good, clean, honest values that I was taught by my Mother when I was a youngster. That, really, is all I can do."Mathewson was a tall and handsome young man, with blond hair and blue-eyes. Many believe he provided the basis for a fictional character in a popular reading series of that day – an heroic character named Frank Merriwell who excelled at football, baseball, basketball, crew, and track at Yale University while solving mysteries and righting wrongs. Merriwell's tenure, in fact, tracked quite closely with the early years of Christy Mathewson's career. The popular Merriwell series – many featured in Tip Top Weekly, a popular weekly reader for youth – began in April 1896 and continued through 1912.
Mathewson was also a devout Christian, never pitching on a Sunday, and was sometimes called "The Christian Gentleman." Others lauded Mathewson's "model citizen" status and off-the-field contributions. Grantland Rice, the famous sportswriter whose work appeared in the New York Herald Tribune and elsewhere, noted: "Christy Mathewson brought something to baseball no one else had ever given the game. He handed the game a certain touch of class, an indefinable lift in culture, brains and personality." Mathewson's various character qualities, his college education, his good looks, and his moral stance on no Sunday pitching, gave him a much-admired standing in American public opinion.But it was on the pitcher's mound that Mathewson's baseball reputation would rise. In his first full season for the Giants, 1901, he won 20 games. On July 15th that year, he threw a no-hitter against the St. Louis Cardinals. Mathewson finished that year with a 20-17 record and a 2.41 earned run average (ERA). The Giants, however, finished in seventh place. At around this time, New York fans began calling him "The Big Six." Mathewson believed the nickname came because of his height (6′, 1″, then on the tall side). But a sportswriter named Sam Crane once compared him to New York City's Big Six Fire Co., described as "the fastest to put out the fire." In any case, Mathewson's "big six" nickname, as well as "Matty," were used in later advertising, book promotions, and other product marketing endeavors.
In 1903, 1904, and 1905 Christy Mathewson won 30 or more games each year. In 1903, he had 267 strikeouts, a National League record that stood until Sandy Koufax broke it with 269 strikeouts in 1961. But 1905 was an especially impressive year for Mathewson, as he won the National League Triple Crown for pitchers that year – i.e., wins (31-9), strikeouts (206) and ERA (1.28). He also threw his second no-hitter that year. But in the World Series that fall against the Philadelphia Athletics, the 25 year-old pitching ace was even more impressive. He was the starting pitcher for the Giants in Game 1 and pitched a four-hit shutout for the victory. Three days later, with the series tied at 1–1, he pitched another four-hit shutout. Then, two days after than, in Game 5, he threw a six-hit shutout to clinch the series for the Giants. In a span of six days, Mathewson had pitched three complete games without allowing a run.As a national sports star in the nation's most notable city, New York, Mathewson was a very popular figure. He received numerous offers to advertise and endorse products, ranging from tobacco, safety razors, bubble gum, and clothing to athletic equipment, Coca-Cola, and various other products. In later years, 1922-23, he also had an indoor baseball board game called "Big Six Baseball," sold with his nickname and pitching image on the box lid. His name, image and endorsement also appeared in several Tuxedo tobacco ads – sometimes with other players in group endorsements. Tuxedo tobacco was used for pipe smoking or rolling one's own cigarettes. Mathewson was a cigarette smoker himself, and said at that time he saw no harm in it. But he apparently drew the line at putting his name on a pool hall/saloon after his mother suggested he might not want to have his name "associated with a place like that."
In 1906 Mathewson came down with diphtheria and nearly died. Still, he finished the baseball season that year with a 22-12 record. His best year was still to come. In 1908, he recorded his record-setting 37 wins in a single season, also claiming the Triple Crown that year. His ERA that year was an incredible 1.43. The Giants, however, finished behind the Chicago Cubs.In the next six years, 1909-1914, Mathewson won 20 or more games each year; 25 or more in four of those years. His pitching during that six-year span helped the Giants win four more National League pennants. Famed Philadelphia Athletics manager, Connie Mack, who had felt the sting of Mathewson's pitching prowess more than a few times, would later say of him: "Mathewson was the greatest pitcher who ever lived. He had knowledge, judgement, perfect control, and form. It was wonderful to watch him pitch – when he wasn't pitching against you." Christy Mathewson compiled a lifetime win-loss record of 373-188, with an ERA of just 2.13. His last few playing appearances in 1916 were with the Cincinnati Redlegs, where he became manager in 1917 and 1918. Then, in August 1918 during World War I, Mathewson became the only manager in professional baseball history to volunteer for military service. He was 38. He served in the Chemical Services Division of the U. S. Army along with another baseball great, Ty Cobb. Mathewson served overseas as a Captain for that year. However, he was gassed in a training accident in France, exposed to mustard gas, with his lungs taking a terrible hit. He later developed tuberculosis.
In 1919-1920, he returned to baseball, serving as a coach for the New York Giants. At about this time, he also began spending time in upstate New York at clean-air "cure cottages" in Saranac Lake fighting his lung disease. In 1923, Mathewson served as part-time president of the Boston Braves. Two years later, in October 1925, he died at Saranac Lake. He was 45 years old. Christy Mathewson is buried at Lewisburg Cemetery in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania.
Modern Baseball
Although Christy Mathewson played in what is sometimes known as the dead ball era – before home run hitting and offense generally became prominent in a more lively ball era – his pitching, combined with the managing of John McGraw at the New York Giants, helped produce what some have called the modern baseball era, and along with it, some of the game's first stars and heroes. Mathewson was certainly among a handful of "star" players in those years; stars who were helping improve the popular appeal of baseball. This was occurring just as an American middle class was taking form. Baseball was becoming more of a bigger business by then — especially championship baseball. Between 1904 and 1913, Mathewson and McGraw took the Giants to five National League pennants, boosting attendance and revenue for the Giants' franchise, suggesting new business possibilities for all of baseball. In those years, Mathewson and McGraw — as well as other "stars" then engaged in pennant races and World Series play — became famous Americans. McGraw would outdistance Mathewson in the game, completing a 31-year career as manager in 1933, taking his teams to 10 National League pennants and three World Series. But Christy Mathewson was McGraw's shining star in the first part of that era. Between them — along with other stars of that era — they helped elevate baseball to its national pastime stature, and they also helped to make baseball more a part of popular culture, drawing more general interest in the game and its players. At least one book of recent vintage, The Old Ball Game by Frank Deford, displayed above, explores some of that history, and there are no doubt others as well.After his passing, Christy Mathewson would earn a range of professional kudos for his play. In 1936, he was voted into the Baseball Hall of Fame – one of the famous "First Five'" inductees, along with Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb, Walter Johnson and Honus Wagner. Mathewson was the only one of the five who didn't live to see his induction. But other recognition also came. In 1943, during WW II, a 422-foot Liberty Ship, built in Richmond, California, was named in his honor, the S.S. Christy Mathewson. And periodically, the sports press would do retrospective pieces on Mathewson's career, such as an October 1949 piece in Sport magazine by Jack Sher entitled, "Christy Mathewson — The Immortal 'Big Six'." In 1957, the Christy Mathewson Little League was formed in District 17 of his home state and home town of Factoryville, Pennsylvania. Baseball historians, meanwhile, have marked him among the sport's greatest players. In 1999, he was ranked No. 7 on The Sporting News list of the 100 Greatest Baseball Players, the highest-ranking National League pitcher on that list. ESPN selected his pitching performance in the 1905 World Series as the greatest playoff performance of all time. Today, in the left-field corner of the San Francisco Giants' AT&T Park in San Francisco, a replica of his baseball jersey – which in his day, bore no numeral – is formally retired with the designation "NY."
Baseball Books
Christy Mathewson also became something of a writer during his career – or at least had his name attached to several baseball books that appeared and sold quite well in the 1910s. In the winter of 1911 and 1912, Mathewson, wrote a series of baseball stories with the help of newspaper man named John Wheeler. That series was called "Baseball from the Inside." In 1912, while still an active pitcher, Mathewson compiled the stories with Wheeler for publication as a book, Pitching in a Pinch. Mathewson had described pivotal points in a baseball games as "being in the pinch," with the outcomes of games often decided on what pitchers especially would do in those moments, thus his book title, Pitching In A Pinch. The Mathewson book, at 304 pages, was first published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York and London. Grosset & Dunlap also did a 1912 dust jacket for the book – believed to be the one displayed at left. One reviewer in the New York Times noted when the book first came out: "Mr. Mathewson uses his pen with cleverness and tells a story remarkably well." Pitching in a Pinch, in fact, is still in publication today, "rediscovered" in 1977 when it was published in hardcover and paperback editions by Stein and Day. It survives today as a baseball memoir from a professional player providing an inside perspective on the game in those years. Original editions of this book can sometimes do quite well among sports memorabilia collectors. According to Robert Edward Auctions of Watchung, NJ, a copy of a 1912 Putnam edition of Pitching in Pinch, with Christy Mathewson's signature, sold for $26,437.00 in 2007. Certain vintage Christy Mathewson baseball cards have also been known to fetch substantial amounts at auction.Mathewson also wrote a series of other baseball books for young readers. Won in the Ninth, for example, is a fictional account of a college ballplayer whose supporting cast were modeled after real-life major leaguers. In this book, Mathewson drew from his college experiences at Bucknell, but he also included some instruction to his young readers on the finer points of playing the game.
Won in the Ninth was praised by the critics when it first appeared in 1911, and Mathewson intended the book to be the first of a series. Several others followed, including, First Base Faulkner, Second Base Sloan and Pitcher Pollock.
However, these books appear to have been a collaboration between Mathewson and sportswriter W.W. Aulick, and were more the products of publishers capitalizing on Mathewson's popularity than they were the writer's works of art. The publishers, however, appear to have launched some considerable promotional efforts around these books, one example of which is displayed at right. Most of the books can still be found today at online booksellers.
John Hancock, Inc.
The John Hancock Insurance Company, the sponsor of the 1958 Christy Mathewson ad which began this piece, is itself something of a historic entity. The company's origins date to the 1860s in Boston, Massachusetts. The Hancock name derives from the famous American patriot and first signer of the Declaration of Independence, noted for his large "John Hancock" signature on that document – a term since used generically to describe anyone's signature. The Boston-based John Hancock operated as its own company for many years, moving through a series of changes.By 1976, the John Hancock company was one of the largest corporations in America, occupying the gleaming-glass, 62-story John Hancock Tower in Boston designed by I.M. Pei. By the late 1970s, the company was collecting more than $2 billion a year from its policyholders. In 1978, they were the nation's fifth largest life insurance company. By 1990 they had slipped to ninth place, about to be passed by Northwestern Mutual. In 2004 the John Hancock company was acquired for $10 billion by Canada's largest insurance company, Manulife Financial. Today, John Hancock continues to sell insurance and other services as a Manulife subsidiary.
John Hancock's advertising and image-making, meanwhile, has its own history. In the 1860s, an early president of the company installed 1,000 tin signs at railroad depots and grocery stores touting the company's business. During the Great Depression of the 1930s, John Hancock agents went door-to-door throughout America retailing their policies, collecting premiums and passing out booklets on American history. And during the 1940s-through-1950s period, its advertising "stories"– such as the one presented here on Christy Mathewson – could be found in mainstream magazines of those years.
Hancock's Ad SeriesBy all accounts, the John Hancock 1940s-1950s advertising series that featured historic figures was a big hit in America. In the art and advertising worlds, too, the series had its admirers and supporters, praised by many. Today the series, or parts of it, can sometimes be found in museums and art auction houses. But even in its day, the John Hancock series brought positive reviews. Here's one commentary by Ben Stahl of the McCann-Erickson New York advertising house that appeared in a 1949 McCann-Erickson advertisement on the importance of art in advertising, offered under the title, "Does It Belong."
"Next time somebody asks you, "Does fine art have a place in advertising?" — show them the John Hancock Life Insurance campaign. Rarely in the history of advertising has a campaign more consistently held to the fine arts level. Rarely has one achieved more favorable recognition for the advertiser. These messages have been hung in schoolrooms, factories, and offices. Reprint requests have run into hundreds of thousands. Statesmen have commended them; citizens have been stirred by them. They have won awards. And they purchased readership at well below average cost for the insurance field. We see a moral in all this. It proves, we think, that everything which has the power to move people has a place in advertising's kit of tools. The art of the cartoon belongs; so does the art of the museum; and so does every form of artistic expression in between. The craft of the art director lies in being able to pick, from his broad workbench of persuasion, the right tool for the job every time."

A blog chronicling life as I live it. Recipes, stories, tips, whatever tickles my fancy. Hopefully within the pages you'll find some new ideas, yummy meals and a new friend. I love life, I love people and I love the relationship that I have with Jesus. I'm a mom, a wife, a friend, a daughter. Come join with me a cup of coffee or tea!
