T-206 Team photo as well as an introduction
Hello eveyone! I'm new to the forum and I thought I would introduce myself. My name is Max, I collect the Giants mainly focusing on the New York Giants T-206 team set.
I was looking for a team photo of the 1909 team for a video project I was working on and when I found this one I started to recognize a lot of the poses.  I made this and thought it was cool enough to share. I hope you guys like it and I apologize if someone has done this on the forum before. Thanks for looking and I look forward to talking and learning a lot from you all in the future. Side note: Does anyone know where I could get a higher resolution picture of this team photo? I would love to have a copy to display with the cards.

Max thanks for sharing! Don't think I've ever seen anyone do this. I wonder if the other players are represented too?

Thank you all so much for the kind words. I think I got everyone that has a pose based the photo, if someone else spots one I will edit the photo.
The one that I almost forgot was Buck Herzog (bottom right) he has a completely different pose in his Giants portrait, but apparently they used this photo and changed the team for his Braves portrait

Max: Heritage auctioned this photo in November 2014. It was their item #81805. Here is the link. Their viewer lets you magnify the photo up to a pretty good size. Very cool paste-up you've made. I don't recall anybody else doing that. Funny that Heritage didn't mention the connection to T206 in their description. I believe it was discussed here; Net54er's don't miss much.

T-206 New York Giants photo
Great job on your T-206 New York Giants photo. I thought the first picture was great. The gif version is awesome. Too bad they didn't use the Christy Mathewson or Rube Marquard pose for a T-206.

Thank you so much Kawika! That is an amazingly large photo. I wish I would have found that before I started it would have helped tremendously, you can actually read the names! I'm going to make a much higher res version with it. Thanks again

Great!
Thanks...I never knew that they used a team photo to come up with some of the T206 cards. I wonder if other team photos were used for the portrait cards. Best first post since the T202 Joe Jackson thread a few years back!

I'll reiterate what everyone else has said…this is friggin' awesome!!!
On the post-war side, I create animated gifs when I find a new card variation, so the picture fades from one version into the other. It would be very cool if you could create one here, showing the original photograph morphing into the cards. If you need assistance, shoot me a PM.

I upload them to photobucket and then put the link in the thread and it works fine. Not sure if an animated gif works as an upload here. Someone else may know better.

What a great picture! Love the GIF you created. There are 11 T206 subjects from that picture alone.... amazing. My favorite part of the picture is the kid Tillie Shafer holding up the baseball. Seems almost like he doesn't really fit. Off topic but reading his bio... he didn't really fit at that time.

Sweaters
Amazing! Welcome and thanks for posting this! This needs to find its way to t206resource.com.
When the T206 set is analyzed by series, people often make the observation that all of the poses with the NY Giants wearing sweaters (Bridwell, Crandall, Doyle, Latham, McGraw, Murray, Schlei, Seymor and Wiltse) are in the 460 series. This image obviously explains why they were all drawn at the same time. Until now, who would have known that the Meyers Portrait and Herzog Boston poses are taken from the very same image? Meyers is not wearing a sweater and we now know that Herzog's sweater was originally a Giants sweater. Snodgrass' pose in the image has a strong resemblance to his T207 card. Not exact, but close. (Sorry I don't have an image to post.) Steve Last edited by willworkforT206; 03-21-2016 at 12:03 PM.

I wonder if any other portraits were taken from other team photos. If they did it once maybe they did it again for another team with several subjects?

Max,
Thank's for sharing. I don't recall ever seeing that photo before. Nicely done. As a Chief Meyers collector I appreciate it. Here's a Giants item that you might not have seen before...it's a Chief Meyers Philadelphia Times Supplement. Patrick

This response has been awesome, when I made this I never expected it. So many of you have shown awesome things in the thread and I don't want to fill up the thread by responding individually.
The printers scraps are quite cool and I never knew they existed until joining the forum. The different ways people collect the monster fascinates me. I love that photo of Meyers, early catchers gear has always been cool to me which is why I love Snodgrass's card in the t206 so much. As to how I stumbled upon it. I just made a youtube video to show my t206 collection progress and wanted a team photo for the title card. I think McGraw was the one I noticed first as having the same pose because on the t206 it is such a unique and distinctive pose.

Great work with that photo Max!
I can't get over how huge the 6'3" Marquard is standing next to 5'10" Doc Crandall. Mathewson looks pretty big too at 6'1". Steve

Photo
OKay this is over the top cool that this comes up 110+ years after the set was put out...... now Im going to ask the question (which may not have an answer)... is it possible any of the other T 206 team sets were based off of another team photo? Just wondering......
