Picked up some new snapshots in the last few weeks

Here's one of the Yanks circa 1930...see the Babe walking out to right field?




c1940s




I think the jersey's say "Fairfield" on them...could be California? Player second from right is Japanese.

Dan, what do you do with all your snapshots? Do you ever frame them? That Babe image drips with nostalgia.

I put them all in ultra pro sheets in binders. Some of my expensive ones..ie Matty McIntyre collection photos are in my safe deposit box.

Here are more recent pickups...

A match between Holland and Belgium in 1958...I got a whole bunch of these, but here are a few...






Unknown at the moment, but I got 5 different shots from this game...

I love those wooden chairs in the field box area.... wonder what those tickets sold for back in the day?

Regarding Fairfield... it is a small town in Northern Cal. Fairfield's biggest claim to fame is being the home of Travis AFB. I'm sure there could be other towns named Fairfield across the US, but with the Asian player and the setting/landscape, it sure looks identical to the town in Northern California.

Thanks Mark, I just got that photo today and it came from a California ebay seller.
