I wanted to share some great ballpark photos, but would not be against a possible trade. My biggest interest is Ballpark Press Photos and Ticket Stubs (3k hit/strikeout; 300 win; 500 HR; perfect games.) Will post a few more photos.

Default Crosley Field (Cincinnati) 1st night game and 1937 Opening Day

Caption on first photo - Cincinnati Inaugurates Night Baseball in Majors - 5-25-35
Cincinnati, Ohio... Baseball became a nocturnal pastime in the major leagues last night (May 24), when Cincinnati and Philadelphia introduced it to 25,000 National League Fans. A host of notables of the game were on hand to witness the innovation, and president roosevelt in Washington threw a switch that turned on the flood lights which lighted the field for the game. Here is the general view of the park during the game. The game itself was a pitcher's duel between Derringer, for Cincinnati and Bowman, for Philadelphia, and was decided in favor of the former by a 2-1 score.

From A Portrait of Baseball Photography (para-phrased): NEA was Newspaper Enterprise Association which was founded by Scripps in 1902. It was one of the first news syndicates. Acme Newspictures was a division of NEA. Hope this helps.

Default Identification Resourses

David Cycleback has put out a great pdf/course on photos
Starting on p136, of this pdf download (note: large download), are great sections on Press Photos, Wire... The tags and different stamps
http://www.robertedwardauctions.com/...photoguide.pdf
also made into a course
https://photoidcourse.wordpress.com/

I already listed this with my Chicago stadiums, but list it again, since the link got messed up
http://www.sportscollectorsdaily.com...seball-photos/

Is anyone aware of any other good online resource? Looking into ordering "Portrait of Baseball Photography" amazon $85 for used paperback. Is it worth that?

I was hoping, by starting this thread, that others would post some of their older stadium photos. Not a lot of good pre-WWII stadium photos, except NY. I see the same ones over and over again.

I have had several people ask about selling some of these, but not a lot of interest in selling the ones posted, I do have probably 100 others (including player photos), that I may be more inclined to.

I am having difficulty on identification of the Polo Grounds photo post #8

Default Tiger Stadium pre-lights

Picked up a few more stadium pics. Here is one of Tiger Stadium post-extension (1937), pre-lights (1948). Stamp on back is Detroit News Staff Photographer Kuenzel. Article on him: https://www.detroitathletic.com/blog...s-photography/

Also, looking for others to trade with. Looking more for stadium pics, similar to those I have on this thread. Have lots of player photos: Ott, DiMaggio, Yankees, Cubs...

HaHa. That's funny as hell. Never seen that shot. Don't imagine that would pass today's safety regulations.

Default 1930 Sportsman's Park

1930 Associated Press photo of Sportsman's Park. The caption states, "Where part of the World Series will probably be played" and is dated 9/22/30. Games 3, 4 and 5 were played here. Philadelphia Athletics would end up winning the World Series over St. Louis Cardinals (4-2).

Love the "Polo Grounds during the famed 1908 playoff game" Any interest in a trade?
