Yeah, I noticed when I did the "Preview Post." I tried putting tabs in to format it properly and that didn't work. I took your advice and have attached the list as a jpg.

Repeating from my previous post, these are 8 by 10 Yankee photo sets. The "1955" set has "Ross Photo Service, Inc." in the lower left corner and the 1961 set is from Manny's Baseball Land.

I am so so confused now. None of these match the one I have.

Mine is:

Bob Turley
Gil McDougald
Bill Skowron
Larry Berra
Hank Bauer
Andy Carey
Elston Howard
Casey Stengel
Mickey Mantle
Whitey Ford
Don Larsen
Tony Kubek


Is this a 57-59?

The important point is The set you have is complete and accurate and you have the envelope. I also have that exact set and have seen it around. The only issue is the year which will remain a mystery unless a star witness out of perry mason comes forward to settle this.

i will do a follow up on that checklist request as soon as I can.

Very Nice! I have a more recent similar set...but no envelope. That'd have made a super dooper xmas give away for a true yankee fan!!!!!

Here is some info on the 6 x 9 sets. I am very certain these are accurate and complete. The 1956 set I have is identical to SCD listing and I also have the rizzuto for a total of 23 photos. Becketts list this set at 24 includingEddie Robinson and rizzuto as part of this set. I have the Robinson photo but I think it is from one of those all star game photo packs issued in the 50's as the photo is so slightly larger than the other 23 in the Yankees set. The other times I have come across this Yankees set they never have the Robinson in the set. The set I purchased did not have the Robinson photo in it but did have the rizzuto.

1959 New York Yankees photographs. Sixteen photo set. Bauer. Berra Carey. Ditmar ford. Howard Kucks . Kubek. Larsen. Mantle. McDougald. Richardson. Slaughter. Skowron. Stengel. Turley. The envelope is white with 1959 New York Yankees photographs. . . Printed in blue. There are two versions of the envelope but say the same thing.


1960 set has fourteen photos. Berra. Carey. Ditmar. Duren. Ford. Howard. Kubek . Mantle. McDougald. Richardson. Shantz. Skowron. Stengel. Turley. The envelope is white with blue print. "1960 New York Yankees photographs"

Some info on the 8 x 10 On the sets you posted I have the sets you referenced as 1953,1956,1960 and 1961 Manny's . I have the envelope for the 1956 and 1960 sets.

The set I have including the envelope missing from your listing is Bauer. Berra. Carey. Collins. Ford. Howard. McDougald. Mantle. Martin. Rizzuto. Skowron. Turley. I have another set including the envelope of the same group of players just mentioned. This set I do not believe is authentic as two of the photos have different paper stock.

I then have the set that started this thread. As noted I have the "alternate" set with the group photo of Casey and the coaches Replacing the solo shot of Casey.

Regarding your 1953 set mine came with a Gerry Coleman for a total of 13. I had doubts this photo was part of the set as the pose is a studio portrait. It seemed out of place. Same paper stock though.

Thanks Mike.

Here's my listing of 6 by 9 sets. I actually have four and not three. I included the 1961 set (Champion Set, could be 1962) even though it is not 6 by 9, it is 5 by 7, the typical size of Jay's sets, but unlike Jay's sets, the photos are not close-ups, but more like the "Action Photo" sets. Lastly, I've attached photos of the 1959 and 1960 envelopes. I have the envelope for the 1956 set, but it doesn't show the year and the year is a guess on my part. No envelope for the 1958 set (another guess on the year on my part).

The difference between what I have as 1956 and your set that I don't have is that mine has Larsen and yours has Rizzuto. Both sets have Howard and Turley. The first year they played for the Yankees is 1955 so neither of those sets can be earlier than that. Rizzuto last played for the Yankees in 1956 so the sets with Rizzuto probably aren't after 1956. Larsen also first played for the Yankees in 1955 but didn't become prominent until the 1956 World Series. So I wouldn't place the sets with Larsen any earlier than 1956. I would like to place sets with Larsen after 1956 but he is included in the 1956 Jay's sets. The difference between what I have listed as 1955 (with Ross Photo Service in the lower left corner) and the set you have that I don't have is mine has Grim and yours has Martin. Again, both have Howard and Turley so they can't be earlier than 1955. Martin was traded from the Yankees on June 15, 1957 so the sets with him probably aren't after 1957. Grim was traded, weird as it is, on June 15, 1958, so sets with him probably aren't after 1958. Stephen's set has Kubek who started playing with the Yankees in 1957 so sets with him can't be before 1957. Larsen last played for the Yankees in 1959 so the set can't be after that. Collins last played for the Yankees in 1957 and seemed to be a mainstay of sets up to and including 1957. Stephen's set doesn't have Collins so it is probably from either 1958 or 1959. So I suppose it's more likely that Stephen's set is from either 1958 or 1959. What I have listed as 1956 is probably 1957 and yours is probably 1955 or 1956. What I have as 1955 could be either 1955 or 1956. Clear as mud?
