14 1909 Boston Herald Supplements & Hebron Academy Maine

[smokelessjoe]

Picked up these Boston Herald Supplements (14 in all) in a scrapbook. I cannot find a whole lot of info out there on these... Curious on how common they are? Totally clueless on value, especially when they are glued in a scrapbook. Some are glued just along the top edge and some are glued entirely. Would love to here some input. Some pictures of the 1908 Hebron Academy football & Baseball teams as well.

Not sure what the "Old Glory" is, but thought it was cool! It has more of a silver or metallic look than the picture shows.

Hi-
I think the team photos came out of a yearbook. I say this because I recently dismantled a scrapbook of similar vintage and while most of my team photos were blank backed, some were not, yet all were printed on the same glossy stock (similar to yours it appears).
In terms of the supplements, They are blank backed anyway so if they can be cut out of the book they should still have some value (maybe 20.00 per common?) even with the paper on the back. If they are back to back, perhaps someone can frame them in a two sided frame. I do not believe these can be soaked, but I am not sure. Very cool scrapbook regardless!

Thanks Alan,
I am sure you are correct about the team photos coming from a year book... I have also seen these glossy images cut from college calendars.

The Scrapbook belonged to a Henry Teague. I believe he was a professor at Hebron Academy.
