Should these be considered/catalogged as a food issue?

I think with Bob's retirement, cataloging at SCD may have come to a halt. I am holding on to my 2011 and 2012 catalogs

Al: Thanks for the reply! I would think others on Net54 would have some of these. But so far no response.

Cool items! Can I see the ones from the Dodgers if you get a chance?

Edit: Cardinals too if possible.

Your wish is my command!! Sorry for the flash!

Cardinals 1955, Dodgers 1954 with no year sign in front, 1955 with Campanella lower right, 1956 with Furillo lower right.

Now lets see others from your guys collections from this set.

And back to my original question, should these be a food issue and have a F- designation?

Are these on cardboard stock, or more like a photo paper stock?

Heavier than paper stock, lighter than cardboard!

Thanks for posting the pics!

Hi Gang:

I have been doing more research on these and pick up some new ones at the National

Here is a group from Worthpoint:

https://www.worthpoint.com/worthoped...eam-3865932700

Since my first post I have found that starting in 1960 they increased the size of the photos and I have or have seen the following in the larger size

LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 WORLD CHAMPION 1960 PITTSBURGH PIRATES
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 1960 NEW YORK YANKEES
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 LITTLE LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 1960 LEVITTOWN, PENNSYLVANIA
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 AMERICAN LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 1961 NEW YORK YANKEES
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 PONY LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 1961 HAMTRAMCK, MICHHIGAN
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 JUNIOR LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 1961 OAK PARK, ILLINOIS
LARGE 15 X 13 1/2 PRO CHAMPIONS 1961 GREEN BAY PACKERS

At the National this year I picked up the below photos. As you will see these are not only of Major League teams. Some of MLB teams are different photos from the same year. I have dated them by some of the players shown and when they were on the teams. Some appear to have been taken in Spring Training and another photo issued later in the year. For example the below photos appear to be from 1956 with the Tigers showing 40 or so players which of course would not be the case during the season.

The Cubs I picked up at the National is the first I have seen with the facsimile autographs!

If any of you have any of these please contact me as I would like to add them to the checklist I am working on
