As the search for "missing player" photos lightens up, I would like to see some of the coloring experts try their hand at the many good 30s and 40s black and white player photos still waiting for color in the Gambo, t_wil1, WrightWing, Tiger Fan, etc. facepacks. Also, there are a few from that period that need a color upgrade. Most of us would agree that previous color work of earlier decades has been outstanding. It would be great to have this extend broadly into the 30s and 40s. Just to name a very few prominant players from the 30s and 40s needing color with debut year in parenthesis:

Luke Appling, Chisox (1930)
Dale Alexander, Det (1929)
Cecil Travis, Wash (1933)
Ben Chapman, NYYank (1930)
Boo Ferriss, Bosox (1945)
Bob Elliott, Pit; BoBraves (1939)
