Although I have images of every player from 1978, I still need some to improve on my current selection. I'll begin by saying my utmost preference is for a clear, color image (action shots OK) absent any autographs or Topps Vault watermarks. The large the scan the better - I can decrease the size and still have a clear image, but for some reason, I can't enlarge small pics without ruining the clarity.

As I said I still need some, and I'll start today with the AL East. If any one can provide these, I'll be using them to mock-up 1978 Topps cards and will give full credit on my site.

Baltimore Orioles - Earl Stephenson
Boston Red Sox (needed in the red unis) - Garry Hancock, John LaRose
Cleveland Indians (1978 unis identified by the introduction of the square "C" on the cap and the old, non-Chief Wahoo left shoulder patch) - Jeff Torborg, Jim Kern, Al Fitzmorris, Paul Dade, Larvell Blanks, Dan Briggs, Horace Speed, Larry Lintz, Rick Kreuger, Mike Vail, Alfredo Griffin
Detroit Tigers - Steve Baker
Milwaukee Brewers (1978 saw the introduction of the "mb" hat logo and pinstripes on the home unis) - Willie Mueller, Tim Johnson, Mark Bomback, Ed Farmer, Jeff Yurak
New York Yankees - Larry McCall, Dave Rajsich, Dennis Sherrill, Damaso Garcia, Domingo Ramos
Toronto Blue Jays - Dave Wallace, Mark Wiley, Tom Hutton, Butch Alberts, Don Kirkwood.

I'll list some others later on. In the meantime, many thanks for the people who contribute to this site - it's a fantastic resource.
Here is a larger version of the Dave Wallace image shared by Ceej a couple of years ago. I'm not sure if the print dot pattern is something you can work with. Speaking of photos that show printing patterns, earlier this year Merkle 923 shared a John LaRose photo from the Red Sox yearbook, albeit in a blue hat.
