I’m unsure why, but I really like the setup on these 8x10 Rawlings Advisory photos even if it’s not Brooks. Brooks has a few of these photos and this one is a favorite. Scott (quitcrab) posted four of these Rawlings photos and I thought we needed to see this one again (post #381).

1960’s Rawlings Advisory photo.

Scott (quitcrab) has an example of a Rawlings Advisory photo that I had never seen before; I’m glad he pictured it on this thread for all to see. Scott, maybe just a shot of the one of a kind Rawlings photo by itself?
Since we’ve already seen this Rawlings premium photo I’ll go ahead and picture another dugout shot of Brooks. I don’t think this snapshot is from 1969; the writing on the back states, September 11, 1966. The Orioles played the Twins in Metropolitan Stadium this day and the O’s “almost” came out on top.

Mark,

That’s a really nice snapshot of Brooks. How many snapshots do you have of him?

I do have quite a few, but not all of them are in uniform; if fact most of them aren't in uniform. Some I have are from events he attended and such. Through the years of collecting these have been fun items to pick up along the way. Now, when found, they are getting a tad expensive (at least for snapshots) for the nice shots.
