Chris,

That's some really impressive work you've done there. May I ask how you've been finding these? Are you just scouring the web for images on particular players? Ideally, there would be a large database of images for every player that's worn a Major League uniform. Major League Baseball has done some nice things in releasing historical clips and games on Youtube. I'd love to see them open up their archives.

Are we sure that a type 1 photo exists for each card in the set? Call it a gut feeling, but if we're seeing them for players that never made it to the Majors (ie Dutch Revelle), I have to believe that each card has a matching high quality photo. It's just a matter of knowing where to look to find them.

I tip my hat to you, sir. Chapeau.
