Not so very hard, just one of those where you have to keep changing perspective to solve. Yes, the Babe was traded from the Red Sox to the Yankees in order to finance the show "No, No, Nanette." Thus the "Curse of the Bambino" was born, and was only recently broken when the Red Sox, after many years, finally won a World Series.

Amazing work, Telly. One of the best 40 x 40 faces I have seen on here.

That was difficult but fun. When I got the eyes, I thought it would be a female, until the nose. That red dot kept making me think I messed up. lol

A nice change with the use of blue for a face instead of black. Very nice, and clever with the red dot! Good luck with the contest.

It was really hard. I tried it several different days and I finally got it! Very nice image. I also kept thinking the red square was a red dot! Thanks

Being a NY Yankee fan I loved it more than you can imagine.
Thanks!

Nice image and fun to solve. Like #5, I kept seeing the red dot out of the corner of my eye and thinking I had an error. Should've solved that last, lol.

Top half of this solved very quickly for me. Just kept plugging away at the bottom until it popped right out. A good challenge.

Although the name of the candy bar sounds like the name of the famous baseball player Babe Ruth, it was named after President Grover Cleveland's daughter, Ruth Cleveland.
