Default A little more about the photos

I traded e-mails with the seller. Here's what he had to say.

"Upon close examination, it looks like they are the original photos glued onto very heavy card stock.

The size is a bit confusing. Peckinpaugh, Sisler, Simmons, Waner, Speaker, Barnes, Todt and Wilson are much larger than exhibits. Even ignoring the border frame, those images are all at least 5 3/4 by 8 inches. The others, though, - Wheat, Frisch, Bassler, Harris, McQuillan, Heilman, Bottomley and Topocer - have image sizes the same as exhibits.

I bought them in a Lew Lipset auction about 30 years ago."

And yes, I showed up with my pocketknife too.
