Never mind Pete... I always found it hilarious how Chris Short's legs perfectly frame the picture of the dog in the "Alpo" ad on that card. To this day, when I think of Chris Short the first thing that comes to my mind is Alpo. (And I don't even have a dog!)

CW and Almostdone-thanks for the '56 Mantle posting. I used to think it was not Mantle. But what it originally was "not a catch". So Topps put the ball in he glove. First time I have heard about the cropping. Makes the 3 guys to the left of Mantle's big hat appear to be oblivious to the action. Nice.

mintacular-yup this turned out to be a nice thread. Still looking for Mays in the background of a 1973(?) Topps taken during batting practice. I love the pictures going up of the original photos that were 1956 backgrounds. Shall I start a new thread? Yes.

Theer were some cards in the 1956 set that used the same photo for two different players. I forget exactly which, but there's a photo of a first baseman lunging for a wide throw around a runner.
That same picture is apparently depicting both the firstbaseman and the runner. |

I'm thinking that's Elston Howard on the left, not Bill White.

The runner in both of the above is Richie Ashburn of the Phillies' Also, Ashburn is sliding into second base on Johnny Temple's 1956 Topps card #212

I've always thought that the background picture of the 1956 Sandy Amoros card was of Jackie Robinson stealing home in the 1955 World Series.
