Yvars doesn't look too bad, but he's a righty all the way. I still like Willard the best. Some of the others are pretty obscure to be on a charm, I would think!

In 1949 the Dodgers changed from their uniforms with double piping to a single pipe. So if it is Duke Snider what year uniform is he wearing? The player in the charm dose seem to be wearing a giants uniform from the 1942 to 1948 period.
But you can see in this 1949 photo that the bat boys still had double piping who knows when each team stopped using them in spring training? And compared to Snider pictures it dose not pass the ear test which is probably in this case most relevant. Not trying to argue just trying to identify pic.

1949 -52Dodgers had single pipe at home double pipe road uniforms
1949-52 giants had single pipe
Since the charms are from 1950
Unlikely a giant
It may not be the Duke?
But no way is it Willard marshall

What's to say the photo was taken the same season the charms were produced, or the preceding season?
Even Topps repeatedly re-used years-old photos on their 1950s cards. Why expect a higher standard from
whatever company made the cheaply-produced charms with their blurry, grainy, badly-cropped images?
The pic could be from the 1930s, for all we know right now. Are we even certain the charms were made
in 1950, and not 1952 or 1948 or...

I believe the SCD BIG Book called them "1950's Charms", but 1950 just seems to be a year settled on by Charm Holders/Sellers. I recall they were in those penny gumball machines from maybe 1948-49 thru possibly '51 or '52.

They definitely span BOTH sides of 1950, I can assure you of that!
