Bumping the snap thread. I picked up this to go along with my other player owned business snaps. A wonderful shot of Mickey Mantle's Holiday Inn with two kids posing, one with a bat one with a glove. Ca.1960s. Mantle stuff is really crazy, even without Mick himself present. I probably paid more for it than a few deadball hof snaps I have. But I really enjoy player owned business shots. This one gets added to the list of which I now have- Stan Musial and Biggies Restaurant. Dizzy Deans Service Station. Joe DiMaggios Grotto. And now Micks Holiday inn.

I love that snapshot of Johnny Bench!
Here are three photos from a lot of 15 that I just picked up. They're not quite snapshots, but they don't look like news photos either. They appear to have been taken one afternoon in Briggs Stadium in 1943. The photographer, "RUBAN," imprinted his name on each. He was clearly on the field when he took the photos, and he knew what he was doing with a camera. They are roughly 3 1/2 inches by 4 1/2 inches. The right-handed batter above looks to me like Rudy York.

Its been too long again, nice shots everybody. I was bidding on a few of Scott Gaynors just now and got blown out on 5 lots on what I thought were pretty crazy strong bids. Snapshots continue to sell at amazing prices for nice shots. Being in the world of large type 1 news photos and snapshots I can say for certain snapshots are selling for much more at this moment. Of course depending on the photo but in general this is the norm.
Ps: If you won the lot with Aaron batting and want to sell the two of Red please reach out. Now a contribution: Group of Cubs On Catalina Island. The only one I can ID for sure is Joe Munson, far right (who's estate this came from). Naturally I love the sweaters and setting. Walking around Catalina island after a day's training on the field no doubt felt like a fairy tale.

Love those Cubbie sweaters! Awesome snapshot, Lucas!
I was shut out on all the snappers that ended from that collections. Lots of rare rookies or even pre-rookie snapshots. Strong prices indeed.

The Shot
I posted this somewhere earlier this year. This is my grandfather's fan snapshot. One of the more well-known out there.

Totally agree on the prices. I was an underbidder on the Williams. I really did not expect it to go that high. The snaps in REA over the weekend also were very strong. Then there was the Jackie Robinson in LOTG a few weeks ago. Nosebleed inducing.

I am 99% sure it's 1925 spring training, Hack joined the team in 26 so unfortunately I don't believe it's him.
I say that because of this snap that was in the same lot. Joe after he caught a fish on the island. He is in a 1924 flannel. Which would make sense for 25 spring training. Looks like he walked the plank to make the catch. The fish is somewhat translucent so you have to kind of focus your eyes. Keeping with the topic, I think this is one if my favorite snaps I own.

These are great, I especially like the CPB and JJ. After watching there will always be light shining somewhere and seeing them talk. Super.

Been a bit since this thread has been updated.
Here's a snap I thought was pretry cool despite the fact the player is unidentified. The note on the back really makes it.

Hi Andy, do you — or anybody else here — know who the guy is who's posing with Greenberg in your snapshot? I have a snapshot of him posing with someone else from the same era ...

Don Larsen and Vandy
Snapshot of World Series perfect game pitcher Don Larsen and Johnny "Double No-Hit" Vander Meer from Larsen's personal collection.
I believe this was likely taken at the Ted Williams museum in FL circa mid-1990's. Vandy signed the snapper and gifted it to Larsen. Last edited by Scott Garner; 10-14-2025 at 06:34 PM.

The two snapshots look like they were taken the same day. I can't find a coach who resembles him, and the shape of his body rules him out as a player. I wonder if he was some sort of dignitary who got to play coach for a day in spring training. He looks a little like WC Fields.

Correct, taken the same day for sure based on the set of photos. If it's a player would def be an old timer player..but don't know who that would be. Totally agree, most likely a dignitary figure of some kind. If it was a well know person, there could be a mention of him in the newspaper archives. Just a thought. Scott great snapper!

Hadn't seen this one before. After Sadaharu Oh broke Hank Aaron's career home record on September 3, 1977, Aaron and his wife flew over to Japan to acknowledge the feat. This photo is from September 17, the day before Aaron officially congratulated Sadaharu Oh during a pre-game event. In this photo taken at the Tokyo Hotel, Aaron's wife Billye is just to the left. Sadaharu Oh's batting style was often described as a "flamingo-style" of batting (he always had his one leg raised before stepping into his swing), so of course Hank Aaron gave Oh a gift of a stuffed and mounted flamingo!

1973 Vida Blue snapper w/ vintage signature
Here is a recent addition to my no-hit pitcher collection of snapshots.
Great action shot of Vida Blue in 1973 spring training. Bonus points for also having a great vintage signature from the day after the photo was taken.

Scott, I was the underbidder on that gorgeous Vida Blue snap shot. And Mark, I'm also a Bobby Grich fan. I've posted my snapshot of him below, along with some other recent pickups, including one of Nolan Ryan with the Mets pitching in spring training.
I have two questions for everybody about snapshots: 1) Does anybody know what a good substance to use is to get rid of the black gunk on the corners of photos that were in albums? 2) Has there been a big collection of snapshots that was recently sold off? I keep picked up beautiful color 1960s and 1970s pro quality snaps from an assortment of sellers, and many are mounted on red pages. I've posted a couple below. And finally, since everyone seems to love Hank Greenberg, here's my latest snapshot of him. As an added bonus, the seller threw in snapshot of another player who turned out to be Charlie Gehringer.
