Sometimes the same photo was used over a period of years. I'll check my duplicates when I get back to Maine.

Here are the Brooks Robinson sheets from 1967-1977.

Alan,

Thanks for checking for me once you return. Most of the small portrait shots that I have are small, cut from the sheets, but some are larger like the ‘66 I pictured. That one is around 3x5; do you think the newspaper’s just enlarged the photo from the sheet?

Good question. I've never seen one as big as 3x5. I suppose they could have enlarged the photo, depending what they needed it for in the newspaper.
