Anyone else collect snapshots of ballplayers?

[QUOTE=thekingofclout;742932]My only signed snapshots. A couple of pretty fair righties. Nolan Ryan in front of Shea 1968. And Ole Diz as a Cubby in 1939.
Hey Jimmy,
Great candid shot of Ryan in his rookie season. That's definitely an early Ryan signature as well, probably from 1968 or 1969 based on others that I have from that time period. Sweet!

Been just over a year since the last post here.

I picked up a few neat snapshots in that time, like this nice 4x5 snapshot
of The Splendid Splinter from 1940...

Hugh Jennings had a sad end. He had a nervous breakdown at the end of the 1925 season and was unable to return to his job as John McGraw's assistant manager for 1926. He was institutionalized in a sanitarium in South Carolina and never went back to baseball after he got out. Here is a snapshot of Jack Dempsey visiting with Jennings at the sanitarium:



More cheerful, here is a snapshot of Jim Jeffries' Barn in Burbank, CA, which was a training facility and boxing venue that Jeff operated until he died:



And here are three snapshots of Joe Louis while training for Max Baer:

The gentleman I bought the group from inherited them from his father who took the pics during spring training. It matches perfectly with the official Spring training team photo that is out there except for a slightly different angle.
I've never seen a team snapshot like this. Does anyone else have anything similar?

That '27 Yankees Team Snapshot has to be one of the coolest snapshots I've ever seen Mark! And Gehrig swinging is superb.

Fantastic snapshots of the Champ as well!

I'll follow up with this 1964 color snap of the Fab Four...
