Photos that don't seem to exist
 
I've been on the hunt for an original photo of 15 year old Joe Nuxhall making his major league debut but have never seen one. I haven't even been able to find one online. You'd think there would have been plenty of press to capture a 15 year old on the mound but I haven't seen a single photo.

What else should exist but doesn't seem to?

John Buzhardt
 
I've been looking for an original photo of John Buzhardt in an Orioles uniform for years. He was with the Orioles a few weeks in 1967. Plenty of Phillies, White Sox and Astros photos available, but I've never seen an Orioles photo. Even the Orioles don't have one.

More recent, but Vida Blue as an A when he briefly returned in '87 (retired during spring training). I'm not sure he even reported but there was definitely a press conference. Nothing.

When I was creating '1972 In Action cards that never were' of HOF'ers, I couldn't for the life of me find a single action shot of Tony La Russa on the Braves.

A photo of the rude grafitti about Stan Papi that the Red Sox left on the parking lot wall on Lansdowne st.

Not because it was good, but because it was crude, very large, and wasn't covered up for years.

Goose Goslin
 
I’ve been hunting Goslin in a Columbia (South Atlantic League) uniform.
I’ve only seen a newspaper image online.

Fred McGriff Bradenton Yankees
 
I’ve spent the last three years trying to find an image of Fred McGriff with either the 1981 or 1982 Gulf Coast League Yankees. When I say I’ve exhausted every option, I’m underestimating where I’ve looked. Any suggestions?

Blue retired on Feb. 20 and didn’t appear on the spring training roster I found.

Hard to imagine nothing has surfaced

I've always been curious if a picture of Carl Hubbell existed of him in a Detroit Tiger uniform. He was in their minor league camp before getting cut and being picked up by the Giants.

Well, one of my searches on ebay turned it up! It's a buy it now, so I hope it's ok to out it. Too pricey for me though.

That Hubbell photo is awesome. Reminds me of the Hank Greenberg in a Yankee uniform photo.

That same picture sold for $142.43 in the RMY auction a couple months ago, so that is plenty of room under that buy-it-now price for the seller to make a profit with an offer.
