Help needed - M114 photo of Lou Navikoff

[jason.1969]

Doug,

Yes, the thought crossed my mind for a bit that there could be uncatalogued pose variations. However, I'm thinking probably not, largely because it would be super weird to bother with multiple Lou Novikoff posters when he only made his debut in 1941 and remained with the same team past the point of the MP&Co set.

For a player like Dickey it certainly wouldn't be shocking for BB Mag to have issued multiple poses over the years. However, he is also a popular enough player that I assume these would be known to the hobby. The fact that he remained with one team his whole career also takes away what looks to be the primary reason for photo variations within the set.

My SABR membership gives me full access to the Sporting News during the period of interest. When I can find the spare time I may start flipping through the pages from about 1940-1942 and see if I can find any of the "missing" photos.

Mainly though, I just have to say WOW again for your amazing collection and the work you went to in posting it. You probably know it is damn near impossible to find even a single pic of some (most?) of these posters apart from your site.
