Gil McDougald, Jerry Coleman and not sure, but I'm pretty sure not Mize!

I'm kinda surprised you're that adamant against it being Mize, Fred!

I can understand why someone might venture Allie, but I'll stick with Mize for time being.

Interesting to note that both men were retired as players in 1953 and '54. As noted, to me this photo has to date to '56 at the earliest due to the style of toy cars. Tell me that one on the top right of the freight car doesn't just scream 1956!

Let's say this dates from a couple years after '56...1958. Virgil Trucks was a Yankee in '58, as was McDougald. Coleman retired the previous season, but was serving as Personnel Director for the team in '58.

I feel kind of bad if I initially got this wrong. While I had the pleasure of meeting Mize, Virgil was my friend.

All you have to do is picture Virgil's classic '53T in your mind for comparison!

Great accessorizing on those guys; watch, wedding ring, tie, and tie pin meeting the big city standards.

The Lionel Trains Library might narrow things down further: https://postwarlionel.com/search.php?search_query=1956

Example, here's that auto-loader: https://postwarlionel.com/2261ws-fiv...ight-set-1956/
