I recently picked up this piece of Al Demaree sketches. It is blank backed and measures about 7.5" x 11". The cool thing about it is that it has drawings that were later used in the 1935 Schutter Johnson set for cards #42 Ruth's grip and #36 Pepper Martin bunting.
In 1922, Demaree's sketches began appearing in The Sporting News. This piece has a sketch for Ty Cobb in a Detroit uniform, so that would date it to 1926 or earlier, probably around 1925. Pretty cool that some of the sketches were done a decade before the release of the Schutter Johnson set.
