That Safe at Third is epic! Looks like a Pizarro in the background.

Did anyone ever identify the players? I believe these were all based on photographs, right?

Yes... they are based on photos. Not sure who the players are... I never tried to figure it out.

T3 #46 "Safe at Third" is based on a photo by Brown Bros. NY and found in a book entitled "Around the World with a Camera" published by Leslie-Judge Company in 1910.

I've been keeping my powder dry recently, but when this was offered to me privately I simply could not pass. There seem to be a lot of people (board members included) on M101-6 lately.

This is not a post card as it is blanked back. It is... It is... I don't know what it is.

You're right. It is just a big card of a Giants player that I must have.

Todd and Chris B. know a lot more. I will say, the photos have a striking clarity and bring to life that era better than any other piece I have yet come across.

That is an awesome shot. I'm curious about one thing, though: Even in the actual photo of this moment that appears in this thread, I can't tell if that ball is on its way in, or it's rebounding out from deflection/contact. This shot kinda makes it look like it's on its way in (note the motion blurring on the right rather than left side of the ball), but that doesn't make a lot of sense given the baseman's position. What do you all think?

Regardless, it's a very cool card. Ranks right up there with Pee Wee Reese's '53 Bowman color action card:

april pickups  Pee_we10

In fact, I'd say "Safe at Third" wins, narrowly, given that it's based on a real moment and not staged (which I assume the Reese is).

If you look at the Safe at Third image vs. the photograph, they actually put the ball in a different place.

You're right, terjung: It's definitely not in the same place in both images. I think the real problem, however, is that they've compressed the runner's body in the card as opposed to the photo. He has a broader and longer chest in 'real life' than he does in the card.

Z-Nut: Awesome cards! Love that battered Bender. Just curious: Are these Type 1's, 2's, or 3's?

Scored another member of the Black Sox Eight, as well as an odd back attached to a player who got into all of 35 Major League games, all in 1910. One of five Smiths in the Monster set. (Imagine, Smith being an odd name.)

Picked up these 1948, 1957 & '58 Wenatchee Chiefs team photos. More central Washingon Minor leaguers to add to the collection.
