Posted By: <b>T E</b><p>I've been searching the house for these things for past year, finally turned them up. These are original 8x10s. Been in the fsmily for past 50 years. In addition to the 20 or so 1912 photos, there are two Underwood and Underwood glossies (I've included 1 of them) and a pile of glossies 8x10 made back in the 60s from either original negatives or first generation positives. All are HOFs except the Shoeless Joe pics (this is the only 1912 original, rest are from the 1960s glossies batch) and the Gandil. Has anybody heard of the 1912 baseball revue? I priced out getting these authenticated by PSA/DNA. Any advice on storage? <p><Img src="http://voot.pair.com/hoofaway/1912bbrev.jpg"><BR><br /><Img src="http://voot.pair.com/hoofaway/1912bbrev2.jpg"><BR><br /><Img src="http://voot.pair.com/hoofaway/1912bbrev3.jpg"><BR><br /><Img src="http://voot.pair.com/hoofaway/1912bbrev4.jpg"><BR><br /><Img src="http://voot.pair.com/hoofaway/1912bbrev5.jpg"><BR>

Posted By: <b>Robert S</b><p>Don't those photos say the baseball review of 1917, not 1912. They are amazing shots!

Posted By: <b>Kenny</b><p>I would say 1917 also. The Dodgers checkerboard Uniforms were worn in 1916 and 1917. Those are some great photos, thanks.

Posted By: <b>T E</b><p>Funny thing is, for the last couple of years, I've been searching for these thinking circa 1918. Then I was so excited when I found them that when I saw, mistakenly as 1912, I didn't think about it. 1917 is right. There is a lot of provenance behind these photos, 1917 matches other details.

Posted By: <b>Kenny</b><p>I would love to see the Zach Wheat image. I am always looking for Wheat stuff as he was born in my hometown. Kenny
