Next to each picture was a tab for kids to write the name of the player, his team and his position. In effect, free baseball cards for the kids during very tough economic times.

Here are a few clippings that I put in top loaders. I sometimes think about the kid who originally cut them out and wrote the player information on the back. Its something I would have done when I was a kid

Best regards,

Joe

Very cool. Thanks for sharing.
