The photo appears to be from 1957, but it's a bit of a puzzle. The Cardinals jersey Musial is wearing came out in '57, but Ernie Banks is wearing the Cubs cap from 1956. If it's from an all-star game, it would be from 1956, because that's when Harry Simpson played in one. The fact that Don Larsen is there suggests the photo was taken after the 1956 World Series, when he pitched his perfect game. I'm guessing it's from spring of 1957, and the Cubs hadn't yet introduced the one-year cap with white stripes on it.
