Default Slightly OT: 1930s/1940s Baseball in Color

Ever since I watched the When It Was A Game video series, I've been fascinated with seeing baseball's early days in color. After collecting hundreds of color pictures from 1950s Sport magazines, I'm now searching out Sunday News color sections from the late 1930s and early 1940s. I recently came up with some beauties, several of which are displayed here. The originals are larger than the scans. Also, I've provided some links to my collection of them ...
