In December 2007, a Barcelona newspaper ran a charity raffle to pick a local baby for a UNICEF calendar shoot.
The winning family brought their 5-month-old son.
The 20-year-old Barca player assigned to bathe him was Lionel Messi.
The baby was Lamine Yamal.
Nobody thought about the photo for 15 years.
Then the baby debuted for Barcelona at 15. Won the Euros at 16 while still doing homework. Took over Messi's number 10 shirt.
On Sunday they meet in the World Cup Final.
Messi is 39. It's likely his last one.
Yamal turned 19 two days ago. It's his first.
The baby Messi held in his hands is now trying to take the trophy out of them.
@mckenzielaw Well you claim a Clemson presidency is not an HOA post that one accepts on Monday and reconsiders after a few awkward conversations at home...and yet here we are. Kinda looks like it is to me.
@BillAckman@NYCMayor It's a partner's desk - see this 2018 article (https://t.co/yhOTXVVZA0). From point 8, "The secretary style desk has functional drawers on the front and back sides, but the side drawers are decorative."
@iconjack@jaymart222@esjesjesj In case you still don't beleive it was a partners's desk see this 2018 article (https://t.co/HYAQx9nWHZ). From point 8, "The secretary style desk has functional drawers on the front and back sides, but the side drawers are decorative."
@iconjack@jaymart222@esjesjesj Your picture is a cheaper reproduction made in the late 1940s. In the article you got this image from it also references The Kittinger Furniture Company in Buffalo, NY (https://t.co/GevJMnCIoO) which creates a more accurate reproduction with guest side drawers.
