What did the '26 Yanks go for? It's one of the best IMO of all the Yankee Team photographs.
I missed that Maris at the Babe's monument. Would love to add that one to my Maris collection.
Like you, I also like to match a TYPE III with the original TYPE I. I think they present wonderfully together.
Although I do have an incredibly clear TYPE III (wirephoto) of Joe & Mick, I don't have my hopes up too high that I'll ever find a TYPE I. Good luck to you tonight as well. Sincerely, Jimmy

Jimmy - The '26 team went for less than $500 - I was surprised, really. Thought I'd lost that one. (I had a mutual friend help to give it a 90% accurate Type 1 status, just based on the scans. The U&U stampings lead me to believe it is a Type 1. )The 1923 went for 3-4x more.
I have quite a few original team photos of the Highlanders/Yankees, but missing many from the late teens, 20'-22', 25', '27 & 29'-'31. Don't care for them beyond 1932 or so.
Didn't know you collected Maris. Will see if I can part with that one
