Need help from Cincinnati Reds Photo Experts!

Hi guys,
Picked up this photo of a Reds player from a vintage paper show today, wondering if anyone can help to identify the player. It feels like a postcard and has silvering like a RPPC. It's also thicker than a photo, not thin like a snapshot. Almost the same same size as a postcard but a bit shorter. If anyone could help me out that would be great! Jeff |
Based on the teeth, I'd guess he's British. Or he shouldn't smile... ;-)
|
It resembles Moe Drabowsky, it he only played a short time with Cincinnati. Worth checking I think.

Agreed, I am just saying resembles.
|
awfully old looking image for Moe
|
Teeth don't match - not Drabowski
|
Those teeth don't look familiar.
My first inclination was Ernie Nevel but don't think that is correct. |
Rocky?
Rocky Bridges?

I think this is a photo of Bobby Durnbaugh. Do you guys agree? Check out the fangs!
|
I agree. That's the same guy.
|
Thanks! He only played for the Reds in 1957 but the uniform is 1956, wonder when this photo was taken exactly?
|
Looks good, nice find.

Durnbaugh
Bobby went into sporting goods sales after his baseball career. It was always a blast to have him stop by ( I was a high school coach/ athletic director). Tremendous personality and a genuinely, wonderful guy.
Quite likely he was in spring training with Reds in 1956. |
Totally Bela Lugosi. I'm on the hearse with everybody else with this one.
