1995 Replacement Players
As someone who attended spring training during the players' strike of 1995, I've wondered if the hearsay about the replacement players is true.
That is: major league baseball and the photographers who normally shot players for the card companies did not, either under orders or unilaterally, not shoot photos of the replacement players. I have seen a photo or two of players who were in the replacement camps, but not any source.
Since Topps dealt with the players' union, I felt sure they kept hands off, but I was curious about anyone shooting photos for posterity.
Does anyone have any specific information about those players in spring training that year?
