I love that snapshot of Johnny Bench!
Here are three photos from a lot of 15 that I just picked up. They're not quite snapshots, but they don't look like news photos either. They appear to have been taken one afternoon in Briggs Stadium in 1943. The photographer, "RUBAN," imprinted his name on each. He was clearly on the field when he took the photos, and he knew what he was doing with a camera. They are roughly 3 1/2 inches by 4 1/2 inches. The right-handed batter above looks to me like Rudy York.
