Mantle & Maris Photograph ID Help Needed
 

Admittedly, I'm NOT a "Photograph Guy"...

I found (REALLY) this photo in a book of my Pa's. He was a big Yankees Fan and passed 5 years ago...

Anyway, it's an 8 x 10 with no marks/information on it whatsoever, besides the names.

It SEEMS TO ME to be printed on OLD paper, NOT what is available now.

I DO NOT recognize the Set - if it came from one.

Is it 1960s vintage? Or just a re-make of a re-make of a...

Any information would be great - even if you could point me in the direction of a website where I could figure it out for myself!

Your assistance is most appreciated!

My first thought, was the picture was used for the movie "Safe at Home", just cropped in a different way.

Thanks, Huck!

That's more info than I had!

Hi Greg,

I have that photo as well and I'm not sure where it is from also. I figured it was a photo you could order from the various places back in the day, like Manny's Baseball Land. After 1961, such photos would have been very popular. I also have another similar photo (see attached) that is blank backed and is 7-1/2" by 10". Again, I'm not sure where it is from and always assumed it could be ordered through one of the various souvenir places.

Thanks Mike!

Similar photo with a different type set and font style...

Your hypothesis sounds QUITE reasonable & probable...
