Where the 1905-1911 Sporting Life team composites ever in reach?
 
Was wondering if reach or any other book of the era showed the Sporting Life team composites?

thanks

I believe that they did appear in Reach BB Guides during that time period. Beware that, in some cases, more than one composite (with different images) was issued for the same team with the same year printed on it.

these seem to be a strange size in relation to the reach books though. was hoping someone might have an intact book as an example.

Sporting Life put out pocket schedules for many years that contained the team composite's.

that seems more plausible. anyone have one of those?

Yes, I have most of them from 1903-1912. AL and NL.

awesome thanks guys! Can you check the 1906 one to see if it matches up?

Actually the one David posted is a New York schedule and not the league schedule's that Sporting Life sold in the newspapers. Although it does have the same W601 except it's on a two page foldout instead of a single page. I'll see if I have an interior scan of one the SL ones.
