Yankees in the field with Lou at first and a very small Babe Ruth in left field. He is more recognizable at higher magnification. The pitcher is Pennock.

Awesome photo Jason!!!

I found a few more
'56 Dodgers in Japan, '38 Comiskey Park, Joe Torre with the Mets,not sure of the year.

I've shown these before, but here are some snapshots my father took at the 1969 All-Star game. Sorry for the blurry image, much clearer in person

What? No hat?

I don't get it. Is the word "dapper" associated with "hat"? :confused:

Jim Thorpe + Negro League great Frank Wickware + Babe Ruth.

Here is a snapshot of WaJo managing the Newark Bears soon after retiring as an active player in 1927. This was a BST pickup in 2014 from another board member.

Harry "The Hat" Walker

Excellent photos posted so far! I have shown these before, but they are my favorites. The sizes are off though as the Cobb is about half of the size of the Ruth.
Alan

Love those snapshots! Here's a few of my favorites. Included are Pee Wee Reese (1941 in Forbes Field), Dixie Walker (1939 in Forbes Field), Red Schoendienst (1943 with the Rochester Red Wings), Joe Dimaggio (1946 in Panama) and Yogi Berra (and Bobby Brown, with the Newark Bears, 1946).

Here are a few of Zach Wheat. He is second from the left in group of 5 picture. Color one is with his daughter Mary.

Cool shot of Ryan. Little did he know the impact he was going to make.

Ken Hubbs & AAGPBL in Cuba

The B&W Hubbs was taken June of '63 in Philadelphia. The color shot has him "miced up" for the "Leadoff Man Show". The AAGPBL all star team was called "The Americanas"...I think. Unknown stadium & team in Cuba. The Hubbs snapshots came from his family.

Steve,
Great snapshots of Fenway!

Thank you! Ryan has definitely got the baby face in this 1968 snapshot. He's 21 years old in the photo, BTW...

I really like that Yankee team photo Mark.

Thanks Steve.
I love team photo snapshots as I find them to be very uncommon. This one is a little unusual it that it has a pro photographer logo in the bottom right. I guess this means it was the professional photogs who took it and just printed small versions.
Not sure why the pic looks so big. They are all the same size.

I've always liked snapshots, and have collected quite a few over the years.
Here's a random variety:

1. Drysdale and Uncle Milty
2. Jackie Robinson, 1956
3. NL All Stars
4. Willie Mays
5. Musial on a plane
6. Gibson and Cepeda and wives
7. Cobb & Collins
8. Speaker on a dog sled, 1919
9. Artie Wilson, last Negro Leaguer to hit .400

These snapshots are great. I hope you don't mind but I am friends wiith Milton Berle's son on Facebook and he is an incredibly huge baseball fan and frequently posts pictures of his dad at games and with the games biggest stars and I passed this photo on to him. I know he is going to love it.

I love photo of Willie Mays from the 1967 All-Star game. Mays was a beast! Thanks for sharing.

Not an easy one to find on a snapshot, let alone an autographed one.
Hank Thompson.

Vandy 1939 at NY Polo Grounds

Thought I would pump some life into this great thread on snapshots.
Here is a new Vandy 1939 snapshot pickup from net54's Jack Torciello.
Many thanks, Jack! ;)
