Scfc
Hey Mike and Andrew,
I won a set of Yankees photos from the recent Huggins & Scott auction. They were produced by SCFC. I didn't know anything about them. Today I got curious and did a little research on the 'net. I found out SCFC stands for Sport Cards for Collectors and it was a precursor to TCMA. When I saw that, I thought of you guys and this thread. (Looking back in the thread, I see SCFC was mentioned early on by Steve Mitchell.)
The set is comprised of 99 4X5 photos. Numbers 1-36 are 1970, 37-58 are 1969, 59-87 are 1968, and 88-99 are 1967.
So, I assume the photos were made in 1970. Is that correct? Also, do you know why you went back and made photos for previous years? And why the odd number of photos per year - 36 for 1970, 22 for 1969, 29 for 1968, and 12 for 1967? Also, why was Mantle included in the 1970 grouping as a coach, but not included in the 1967 or 1968 groupings as a player? Why was F. Peterson included in the '68 grouping twice? In essence, can you shed any light on the thought process that went into the years that were produced and the player selection for each year?
Like many others have said, thanks for all TCMA has done for the hobby!
