Next number on the horizon will be 1,000 pages for this thread. Will we reach it sometime before the end of the year?

At our historical rate of just over 5 pages per week we'll be close, somewhere in the 990s.

This is certainly the third, if not fourth thread. So technically speaking should we not include the number of posts to previous threads which had the same name and served the same purpose.

Krantzbucks the quality of your colorizations give no clue that you are just starting with your efforts, they have all the appearance of a highly skilled and experienced craftsman.

Bmarlowe points out that the Gene_Wright image in the facepack (and shown on baseball-reference.com) actually pictures a college player by the same name. Here is the real Gene Wright, pictured with the 1902 Cleveland Bronchos.

Thanks to bmarlowe for pointing out the error, and for finding the right Gene Wright!

tnfoto · 03-17-2012, 12:58 AM

The facepack image we had for Lucky Wright (also shown on baseball-reference.com) is taken from the Wright, Toledo card in the T206 set. The ca. 1902 Gene Wright image posted above was the source photo used for that card, so we now need a new Lucky Wright image.

Here is Lucky, pictured with the Cleveland Naps during spring training 1909 and with the 1903 Decatur Commodores.

I can trace the facepack threads back to July 31, 2006. Prior to this thread they include:

Gambo and t_wil1 Photo (15-Oct-2007 through 12-Jun-2009)
510 pages, 588,389 views

t_wil1 and Gambo (05-May-2007 through 15-Oct-2007)
209 pages, 122,034 views

Gambo Historical Photopack Update... (10-Jan-2007 through 05-May-2007)
100 pages, 61,977 views

Gambo Photo Pack at Rapidshare (31-Jul-2006 through 10-Jan-2007)
16 pages, 14,276 views

Adding these totals to the current thread figures as of this evening, the facepack threads (not counting managers, coaches, umpires, Negro League/*** or minor league) have generated a combined total of:

1,601 pages of posts and 1,787,800 views.

Bearman14, who has been here since the beginning, informed me that I missed the actual project origin by nearly three months. Predating the threads listed above were:

Gambo Photo Project Update (05-Jul-2006 through 23-Jul 2006)
16 pages, 9,265 views

...and the project origin...

Gambo's current project...Photos for Every Player... (12-May-2006 through 29-May-2006)
1 page, 847 views

...which, along with the 447 views on the current thread last night, bring the totals up to
1,618 pages and 1,798,359 views.

Thanks Bearman!
