I picked up this nice image in a small lot of Ted Williams wire\press photos recently.

This one is different in that it has a "Sporting News Collection" www JohnRogersArchives com sticker on the back instead of a news service stamp or paper caption.
Are photos with this sticker generally regarded as Type I if all else looks right?

The writing on the back of the photo appears to be in original ink. The glue residue is on top of the writing. It does not fluoresce under black light.

According to newspaper articles, Babe Ruth was at Fenway Park on September 12, 1947. Paul J Maguire was a photographer for the Boston Globe for 50 years.

This image is similar to one used for 1959 Fleer Ted Williams card #75

Pick up a Pee Wee Reese DQ Statue this week. I like to pick these up now and then and feel they are an under appreciated collectable from the 50s. Can't seem to get a clear photo with the iPad.

Jonathan,
I'd have to agree with you on the comment about the iPad picture quality. It looks like a sand storm in the middle of the Sahara desert.
