Boston Sunday Herald
Hi, Shawn,
This is a nice acquisition--congratulations!
These supplements were included in the Sunday Herald as a two part, single folded piece depicting Boston Red Sox and Braves players by position, or as the designation noted, players from the Boston Americans and the Boston Nationals. For example, centre field (the Herald's spelling) is represented by Tris Speaker (Boston Americans) and Ginger Beaumont (Boston Nationals).
The supplements are not commonly found in their original, folded version since, like the owner of yours did, many kids/collectors would cut them in half and mount/depict a single player. You can check Old Cardboard for a summary of the set, but I'm not certain where there would be a list of the paired photos. From your list I do know that Autrey and Stahl were paired as first basemen (I have these two), but the rest would be fairly easy to figure out.
Regarding price, I have picked up a few (including pairs) at $50-60 a pair. You have several players I don't own, and I'd be interested in those if you're going to sell.
In the meantime, enjoy them--I've always found these fascinating.
Cheers, Mike
