What are these? Newport Marketing 8 x10s, 1927 Yankees album & others
2 Attachment(s)
I am trying to find out any info on 3 albums of what appear to be photos taken from negatives. Any help is appreciated. I did a few quick searches and didn't find anything that helped too much, but I didn't look long either. Each album has a couple sheet explanation but nothing dating them.....thanks

No one has seen these? These team sets are in large brown binders. I am guessing '80s-'90s commemorative items?

Leon - Newport Marketing at the address on the letterhead was incorporated in California in 1991 per the Secretary of State web site. Status shows as "suspended" but that likely means they closed down but never filed the necessary paperwork to dissolve the corporation in California.
The principal listed as agent for service is Gerald Roger Haack, now doing business apparently under the same corporate name but in Michigan. You might be able to make a contact from that business and get more info. |

Leon, sorry I had overlooked this post previously. In light of the "George Brace family" comment in the write-up, a couple of notes that might help narrow down the date range a bit: George Brace officially retired from photography after the 1994 season due to failing eyesight. At that point, I believe his daughter, Mary Brace, was running the photo business (making restrikes from the 65-year accumulation of negatives) as well. George Brace himself passed in 2002. Based on the reference to the "George Brace family" rather than to George Brace himself, I would infer that the albums were issued at least after 1994 when Mary was carrying on the business, and quite possibly after George's passing in 2002.
