There are at least 15 variations in the format of the pages on which pictures were printed, with most baseball photos appearing in at least two or three different formats.

Parade Sportive has almost twice as many basic hockey photos as baseball, some 73 different plus three spelling variations. Boxing has 20 different basic photos, with wrestling a little more than half of boxing. Parade Sportive also has tennis, ice skating, skiing, motocross, cycling, track and field, racquetball, ping pong, and golf pictures. Again, all Parade Sportive photos can appear on various different formatted pages (up to 15 different types) including as pages of pamphlets it issued.

Parade Sportive voiced by Paul Stuart was a radio show broadcast from 1944 to 1948 on four Montreal area stations, most of which were owned by newspapers. In addition to having pictures inserted in various newspapers to promote the radio show, they were available as souvenirs at the stations and were sold by series or in larger groups. By 1946, over individual 70,000 complementary ones had been given away with many more sold.

I am looking for any versions of the pamphlet called "La Revue de la Parade Sportive" in which various photos were periodically run. Let me know if you have one, or at least the covers. Maybe you can provide scans?

Quick reply, more to come. Two of the 1946 Montreal Royals (Royaux) championship baseball team Parade Sportive releases with Jackie Robinson. They are both on about the same size sheet. While the same photos are used, they are of different sizes. Though the "Parade Sportive / Paul Stuart" logos are the same, there is variation in the wording next them. Obviously one has an advertisement and the other doesn't. Parade Sportive developed about 15 variations in its background formats across the couple of hundred different varieties of its sports photos. It is not uncommon to find as least three different background formats used for the same photo.

Will try to post the rest of the pictures sought as soon as time permits, but knew most of you wanted to see the Robinson's.

I think "about the same size" is an overstatement, so here's a scan of the two 1946 Montreal Royals (Royaux) Championship Baseball Team Parade Sportives next to each other so you can see the relative size. Note, both refer to radio broadcasts on radio station CHLP with the left one indicating "C.H.L.P. vendiedis soirs 7 h. 30 p.m. jeudis 11-11 30 a.m." (Friday evenings 7:30 p.m. Thursdays 11-11:30 a.m.) and the right one, "CHLP tous les dimanches midis 12 30 p.m." (every Sunday noon 12:30 p.m.). [CHLP was a French-language Canadian radio station located in Montreal, Quebec which operated from December 31, 1932 to November 15, 1957.] The ad is for Auvents "Acme" (Acme Yawnings with "toutes sortes" = "of all kinds" in the lower left).

Here's a couple more, Paul Calvert and Clay Hopper. I misspelled one name in my baseball list above. It should read Roy Partlow (not Portlow). He came to the Royals from the Hometown Grays and Philadelphia Stars at the same time Jackie Robinson arrived from the Kansas City Monarchs. In the 1946 Championship team photos above, Partlow is at the far left and Robinson at the far right.

I'm still looking for complete copies of Parade Sportive publications entitled, PHOTOS / "CANADIENS" 1945-46 (the original edition, not the "2e Edition") and any volume of La Revue de la PARADE SPORTIVE. Looking to buy, but scans will get me through for the moment.

Thanks,

Mike

Hello All:
In the interest of transparency this may cause confusion. I have not looked at my Jackie postcard type card in maybe 15 years and as mentioned above have a note from the seller back in 2004 that is definitely "not a reprint". Now because we have been asked to post a scan we looked at it and at the bottom of the reverse in very tiny print is says "reprint".

Now that begs the question reprint of what ? Since we have seen no other posts stating they have the postcard size card could "reprint" simply mean a card made from the standard Parade Sportive issue or a reprint of a card which may be an original ? If the latter where are they?

I doubt that somebody would create just one postcard size card but who knows? Maybe.

Anyway "reprint" or not I like the card and if anybody till wants a scan we will see about doing so and thanks for your interest.
