Maybe you can answer this question. Why is so much of the minor league items better looking than the pro ball stuff? The pictures you’ve been posting lately are extremely nice. |

My only guess would be that major league photographers take such a high quantity of photos, that quality sometimes takes a hit. I'm guessing most minor league teams use a local photographer. Minor league teams have limited budgets and local photographers take more time to do the photos right the first time. It would also be good advertising for a local photographer, so they want the fans to see their best stuff. Just a guess. I do think the old B&W photos from the 1950's and 60's, major or minor leagues, are way better than the photos today. Just my preference. |

Day 124 (May 3, 2020 – 124)
When I was young, I used to cut out all the Oriole pictures out of the newspapers (plus the other teams if the pictures looked good). I still have a few, but most are long gone. The bad thing is I cut them out of pretty much all the publications I had as well. Well at least a few others did this as well and I’ve picked up a couple of newspaper cutouts over the years, mostly signed, and added them to my Oriole collection.

Another minor league set I'm working on is a set of 1995 Bowie BaySox photos that were giveaways at the stadium. Bowie has been the Orioles AA affiliate since 1993 and over the years have had some nice giveaways. I have three out of ?? photos. Looking for additions to the checklist. The photos are 8x10 on glossy paper.

Going through some junk and ran across a few snapshots. What do you think mid-70's? Gotta love the long sideburns and the staches coming into play...
