Indians/Ohio state Photos ID Help

I also see Max Alvis, Dick Howser and Birdie Tebbetts, who was their manager. I would call them team photos. The stamp on the back resembles the same one that's on the backs of Reds photos from the late 1930s through at least the 1950s. I'm also guessing these came out in '64, since that's the year Early Wynn became a coach. I believe the Indians switched to red caps in '65. I suppose the pictures could also come from early '65 before the red caps came out.

Thanks!! '64 would make sense with the other contents (1961 Phillies Mantle; Large lot of '67 Topps Pin-Ups)!

Hi Stefan,

The Indians photos are from 1964. Back row: Jim Grant, Max Alvis, Al Luplow. Middle Row: Jack Kralick, Woodie Held, Dick Howser. Bottom photo is coaches and mgr.: Elmer Valo, George Strickland, Birdie Tebbetts, Early Wynn. Solly Hemus was also a coach on that team and could be one of the 2 on the left, but they look like Valo and Strickland to me. Woodie held was traded to the Senators after the season, and Valo did not return the next season as a coach, so I don't think there is any way that these could be from 1965.

Hope this info. helps.

Jeff
