Ok, I got this really cool album today FULL of very large Baseball Magazine Photos.
9 3/8 by 12 is the large standard size and it appears some of the recent ones like Reese and others are smaller? Maybe trimmed but I think just smaller by design.
The reese is 7 13/16 by 10 and appears untrimmed (but who knows?) to my albeit failing eyesight lol!
I'm not convinced these are M118s which I found a 2012 thread on here. They look different and the older player photos look and feel very vintage. My amateur thoughts are these:
Premiums that were available through the years and NOT in one specific year like the M118s. That being said, I have no idea what set they are from! Vermont has SO MUCH stuff like this its amazing!
Any help out here? lol, I know its coming from you guys.....and gals? Thanks!
PS 1 Here goes as I have time and in no particular order and I'll include the exact name not he card with quotes if there are any:.....large size: "Christy" Mathewson, Tyrus Raymond Cobb, Rogers Hornsby, Grover Cleveland Alexander, Walter Johnson (Henry...do you have this one?, "Tris" Speaker, Cy Young, Walter Masterson, "Babe" Ruth, Red Munger (but not from same set but glossy and no name but name is written in pencil on back) size 7.5 by 9 7/16, Carl Hubbell, Leo Durocher, James Emory Foxx, Ted Williams, Alfonso "Chico" Carrasquell, Stanley Frank Musial, Willie Mays, Earl Torgeson, Edwin "Duke" Snider, Robert Doerr, Warren Spahn, Ed Matthews, Al "Red" Schoendienst, Jim Busby, Carl Erskine, Bobby Thomson, Clyde McCullough, Clem Labine, Eugene Bearden, William Cox, Del Ennis, Joe Black, Luke Appling, Eddie Waitkus, Larry Doby, Monte Irvin, Henry Sauer, Harold Newhouser, Early Wynn, Victor Wertz, Walter Dropo, Joseph Gordon, Robert Lemon, Gil Coan, John Pesky, Eddie Yost, Mike Garcia, Conrad Marrero, Enos Slaughter, Clyde Vollmer, Hoyt Wilhelm, Ted Kluszewski, Salvatore Maglie, Gerald Staley, George Kell, Robert Avila, Howard Pollett, Harry Brecheen, Carl Scheib, Harold (Peewee) Reese, Sam Jethroe, Max Surkont, John Mize, Gus Zernial, Melvin Parnell, Dale Mitchell, Dominic Di Maggio, Ned Garver, Louis Boudreau, Al Zarilla, Ellis R. Kinder, William Walker Cooper, Joseph Dobson, Andrew Pafko, Al "Flip" Rosen, Solly Hemus, Al Corwin, Willard Marshall, Cass Michaels, Henry Majeski, John Groth, Robert Shantz, Ed Stanky, Martin Marion, Ewell Blackwell, Andrew Seminick, Sam Chapman, Virgil Trucks, Paul "Dizzy" Trout, Irv Noren, Sidney Gordon, Philip Cavarretta, Ed Robinson, Robin Roberts, Luke Easter, Elwin "Preacher" Roe, Barney McCosky, Orestes Minoso, Ralph Kiner, Carl Furillo, and the 1946 Red Sox Team Photo!~ No doubles so..... it appears to be 101 different but one is 100% NOT from the same set (the Munger) so 100 different that all say Baseball Magazine on them!
PS 2: They are all the larger size EXCEPT: Carrasquuel, Torgeson, McCullough, Labine, Bearden, Cox, Appling, Coan, Kluszewski, Reese, Roberts, Roe, McCosky, Minoso, Kiner, and Furillo. ALL are large 9 3/8 by 12 except these more modern players..... these that I just listed in this sentence are all approx 7 13/16 by 10.
PS 3: All appear to be with the NY address on them and none with the super scarce Wash. Address as I learned by just reading the SCD article on these!
Peace, Mike
