Stand-Alone Coaches Cards
 

I picked up this Dick Bartell card recently, and realized this was a card of a third base coach. Not a player or manager, just the Reds' third base coach. I was trying to think whether there are any other sets that feature coaches by themselves on cards and I couldn't think of any. The 1960 set features multiple coaches on cards.

Card featured and discussed further in the first half of this episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wO-BIE-FIjY. Interested in any input!

have a few IIRC

1954 Topps. I have Manush, and there’s Billy Herman and maybe a few others?

Earlier we had a Topps 1952 Gallery thread in here where all cards in the set were posted numerically by anyone wanting to participate. The contract war between Topps and Bowman for the image rights to players was one reason the 1952 Topps set has numerous images of players who were managers, coaches, in the minors.or who never played in a MLB game in 1952 or any other year.

1951 Bowman Bill Dickey. 48 Leaf Wagner.

I think there's a 1969 Oakland A's team set that has a DiMaggio card as a coach.

There are coaches cards in 1952(ex. Bill Dickey), 1953(ex. Dixie Walker), 1954(ex. Heinie Manush) and 1955 Topps(ex. Billy Herman).

Well consider me corrected! Thanks all! :D

Don't forget that oddity that was the Chicago Cubs' "College of Coaches" in the 1960s. The team did away with the manager position and instead rotated the coaching staff through the role. One coach was designated as a sort of quasi-manager with the title "head coach." The 1965 Topps card of Bob Kennedy shows him with this title.
