Also.. Since its not part of the 1930's set... Will u be making a card of this image?

We would not make a print of this shot for the proposed issue I'm considering, since it's not part of "The 1930's" set. Something we could definitely offer separately though.

Here is the image. This particular print was created directly from the glass plate negative, likely in the late 80's or early 90's:

Wow, very cool andrew! Thanks for posting it. I have never seen that image before.

The standard foil MLB licensing sticker and the photofile and other logos at the bottom would be problems for me.

This is a good point. We would have to include the Photo File logo, likely the Cooperstown Collection logo, and the hologram might NOT have to be included. I create 8x10 cards in Limited Editions of 2000 every summer for the new HOF Inductees and we are not required to use holograms on those. So, we'll see.

MLB also does have a smaller hologram that perhaps we can use if it comes to that. I've seen it present on several licensed products and it's considerably smaller than what we currently use for 8x10's and enlargements.

Are you only allowed to have the logos and, if required, holograms on the front? If you put them on the back, would it qualify as something you are not licensed to produce (like a card)?

Topps is the only MLB licensed card maker. Other companies make cards but sans MLB logos. I am sure there are a myriad of licensing/estate issues.

Here are some of the first samples I had made up. Obviously, a lot can change throughout the creative process and this may not be representative of the final product. Should be pretty close though:
