It's all really about the kids anyway, isn't it?

So we have done mascot cards before, but they always include dogs and who knows what else. Since I just picked these up, I thought, let's do a kid's card thread! So show your stuff with kids in uniform. These are always just so cute!

But that photo of Billy Southworth with a young Billy Southworth Jr. always gets me a little.

I never knew the story until you wrote this. I looked it up, and I can see why. Billy Jr. obviously was a real patriot. Makes me even happier that his dad made the Hall. Good on Raymond Mileur to make sure he was not forgotten.

Not cards and kids not in uniform but otherwise marginally on-topic.




Not sure if this is in my collection or a scabbed jpeg.


Definitely not mine but an endearing image nonetheless.

Topic, shmopic, those are awesome!

Again not a card, but the thread would be short if we limit it to just cards right

Not pre-war, but a card and one of my favorite photos:

Wow.....slightly surprised to see a black kid in a photo like this. Not something you see a lot of from the time.

Not sure if trade cards count, but here you go anyway...

Kids and baseball, everything counts! These are all cool and fun to see. Keep 'em coming!

Leo Durocher & Son - I knew that I kept this for a reason!!!

[bn2cardz]

I know the child isn't wearing a uniform. This is still one of my favorite images though.

[Leon]

baseball at the schoolhouse back in the day...and a kid that probably needs to go on a diet...

Bobby looks like Kevin Costner's Dad in Field of Dreams.
