Bob LemkeDan, to briefly answer your questions . . .
I print the fronts and backs in "sheets" of (usually) 6 or 8 on full-sheet label paper. It's got a matte finish. I then attach them to a comic book backer board and cut with a guillotine cutter. When I want a glossy front, I use regular photo paper and glue it to the backer board.
The cartoons on the Peete were originally used by Topps on various 1950s cards.
Fonts are standard Photoshop, which I try to match as closely as possible to the originals.
I've been at this for 5+ years now, and greatly enjoy the process. It's a great way to stay connected to the players and the cards of the 1950s-1960s without spending a lot of money, although the costs of papers, printer ink cartridges, purchased photos, etc., can add up.
