Here is the latest little addition to my collection.
Ty Cobb 5x7 Glass negative. My quick research (based on uniform) would put it between 1918-1920?

Just picked up this 1949 Yankee team 5x7 negative.

Great pick-up, Ryan! The negative looks as clear as day.

That photo hits me like a ton of bricks. Used to go to a lot of Yankee games when I was a kid in the fifties in New York. A grandstand seat was a buck-fortynine and I would always sit in those same right field stands as low down as I could. The first five or six rows were box seats. Can still see Bauer or Maris up close with Mantle off to the right plain as day in my mind's eye. I would pay the Devil to go back for another afternoon in the Kreindlerian shadows of Section 29.

Don't know why every time I post--things come out sideways....with that said here is my latest find now finished....1945 Rockford Peaches with a 45 program matted and framed.....was able to pin down the year based on one player who did not play only that year with Rockford....11 out of 13 have names with faces--2 I am at a loss but hopefully will figure out in the future.

Thanks Craig.

David - You certainly have great memories. Must have been a great time to be alive. My first games were in the mid 80's at The Vet. At least I did get to see Mike Schmidt play. I would have loved to see Mantle in person and at a place like Yankee stadium.
