View Full Version : E. F. Collins-Photos he took & collected
My uncle E. F. Collins, he took a lot of photos for baseball players from 1940s to 1990s. He died in 1997. The photo of Mickey Mantle was one of them. He also collected a lot of pre-war photos & postcards. I post the following photos in memory of him. They are all vintage photos.

Ditto.
Awesome!!!
But will I continue post on the same thread, or create new threads for more photos? Which your guys prefer?

Bob,
The patch that Mantle is wearing on the left sleeve of his road uniform (pictured above) appears to be from the 1955 Goodwill Tour of Japan.
