1970s Dodgers 8x10 Color Team Issue Photos

[Chris-Counts]

I recall buying the color 8x10s at Dodger Stadium the first time I saw a game there in 1970. I saw other games throughout the 70s, and the 8x10s were a staple of every souvenir stand in the ballpark. I recall seeing them for sale individually, though, not in packs. But I do remember seeing 5x7 black & white photos in packs. In the late 1970s, I went down to the stadium on an off day and somehow pestered my way inside the stadium, where someone ushered me down to a basement room filled with 8x10s and other stuff dating back to the 1960s. They let me carry away a free box of the stuff, including dozens of postcards, 8x10s, yearbooks, etc. I recall getting a World Series pennant from '65 and a World Series program from '74. They must have produced stuff in large quantities to still have '65 pennants left in the late 70s ...
