1948/49 Cleveland Indians ID Help Needed
Posted By: Rhett Yeakley
I apologize if this is too late for some but I picked up a few items containing the following images and wanted a little help with the identification of the players. All would have been on the 1948 or 1949 Cleveland Indians teams. Since the catcher for the team was Jim Hegan, I figure the catcher was him, but need id on others. Any help would be greatly appreciated. |

The top one looks like Lou Boudreau and the 4th one down I think is Bob Lemon. |

My initial reaction was that the top one is not Boudreau but rather Ken Keltner, and after checking a 1948 World Series program, I feel better about that assumption. Boudreau had much darker, thicker eyebrows than the first player pictured here. Plus, that fielding stance (I know it's posed) just doesn't seem to fit him. I say Keltner. |

While I am asking I might as well show what they are, it might help with the id. They are from the 1949 Vis-Ed Magic Dial Set. The group even came with the viewer its box is a little beat up though. I was a little disappointed there was no Paige in the group though. |

With the link, I was able to match a couple of the shots from the single frame set to the Dial set and it appears the players are as follows... |
