All awesome stuff, Marty! Is that you wearing a Brooklyn Game-used Uni? And if so, who's was it?

Pardon my hiatus.
And thanks for all the new additions:

Marty in uniform, shades of PeeWee Reese!
And Johnny Podres, our 1955 World Series hero! With his Game 7, 2-0 win!

I meant to post these 1957? Photo-pack pics the morning I started driving south, but I forgot to add the title, so the post never happened.
I got this photo-pack at the one game I attended, which I think is 1957.

Doug Goodman: I saw my brother and showed him his 1956 WS ticket and scorecard along with your comments. He laughed and remembered back, and it was a good moment.

I have a few more players I want to show, along with the 1957 final team to conclude.
But I've realized that I have a big hole in my collection: No Casey Stengel!
I guess that I'm going to have to get me two: one as a player when he first broke in, around 1912 with Brooklyn [4 hits if I remember correctly], and one when he broke in as a manager with one of the worst teams in the mid 1930's.

Back later.

I checked it out last post; 1912 was his rookie year.
I have since continued to read the excellent bio by Wikipedia on Casey and recommend it to anyone interested:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casey_Stengel

I may still have the book, Casey at the Bat, which I read as a boy, but I can't imagine that it captures Casey and his career better than this journalistic piece of a few thousand words.
Myself, I well remember Casey as manager of the Mets, but that's another story.

Hopefully, someone will post a card or two [the 1936 Pastel is memorable!], but the scan below from one of my Brooklyn books will have to do for now.

I'm also going to include more scans of earlier cards of players that I missed [like the last of the legal spitballers, the great Burleigh Grimes] before I hasten to conclude.
So, pardon the barrage of random scans.
I do note though, that my Brooklyn collection has the greatest variety of different type baseball cards that I have, and I hope that the mix of many beautiful cards is worth viewing.
