Help with Brooks Robinson Photo

Can anyone identify the year this photo was originally taken? It looks to me to likely have been taken at an Orioles spring training facility in Florida, but the year is a bit of a mystery. Thanks for any help.

The cap logo and the shoulder patch plus Robby being a Rook in 1957 put this somewhere between 1957-1962. Wish I could help more...... Rocky

+1 Here’s a photo of Brooks taken in ‘60 and 63 and another ofBrooksie with Ron Hansen. Hansen played for the O’s 58-62. Hansen had his break out season in 1960 and was still a starter in 1961. Brooks became a full-time starter in 1960. Based on this, you could probably eliminate 1957, 1958, 1959 and maybe, 1961. So I would date your photo 1960 or 1962.
