Previously, I mentioned my attraction to newspaper cutout cards and posters. Does anyone else collect them like I do. I really like them.
Over the years, both the Baltimore Sun and Washington Times have printed posters of the Orioles to be inserted into their newspapers. Today, I'm going to highlight only the posters from the Washington Times. I'm sure that I'm missing a bunch, but here are examples and checklists of what I have from 1996-2004. I don't have any from 2001. Additions to the checklists are appreciated.
1996 - 1996 Orioles All-Stars

1999 - Brady Anderson/Paul Blair, Albert Belle/Frank Robinson, Mike Bordick/Mark Belanger, Will Clark/Boog Powell, Delino DeShields/Davey Johnson, Charles Johnson/Rick Dempsey, Mike Mussina/Jim Palmer, Cal Ripken Jr/Brooks Robinson, B.J. Surhoff/Don Buford
These are cool, because the posters picture a current & past Orioles player. Brooks is pictured with Cal. I thought they were commemorating the 1969 team, except the catcher is Rick Dempsey instead of Ellie Hendricks.
