Holy smoke.
What a house of cards (pun intentional).
As a newcomer, only just learning the rules of ettiquette.
DId I somehow have a hand in wrecking everything?
I am confident that this thread will stay strong.

PS: Put some more original images over on the sadly neglected minor league thread.

For the record, UK, I don't think you made a mistake in returning to OOTP, and I hope you don't leave.

I agree. Please stay.

Fresh from the Topps Vault folder....

Gene spent his entire 5 year career with the Cubbies ('71-'75).

Marc came up to the bigs with the Cardinals in '73 departing after the next season. Apparently his road to PT was blocked by a heavy catching dose of Ted Simmons and a sprinkling of Simba's then backup in Tim McCarver.

And by coincidence both wore #16......

I was delighted to provide you with images for you to enhance as you said it gave you pleasure. I cannot do so any more for a number of reasons.

The main reason is that we all of us give up hours and hours of our own time to pursue a hobby not to make money. We don't own the images we share so we are not entitled to make money from them. I do not own the images I submit for colorization so I have no right to make any money from them or assist anyone else to do so.

If we attempt to make from money through the site we risk putting the site at risk. Recently we have seen many petty objections to images that have been posted. I am clear in my own mind that the biggest threat to the site would be if we were to attempt to make money from them.

Asking for money for colorizations also sets a most unwelcome precedent. Others have spent many years providing beautiful, excellent examples free of charge and it would undermine both their efforts in the past and the future for them to do so if others are making money from colorizations.

I do not want to intrude of your preference to work on Cardinals images if you have no great interest in providing color images for other teams.

I am very sad that this happened as you do have a lot of talent and I think if you were prepared to give more time on working in images you find challenging it would further enhance your skills.

Regards

Nigel

I'm sure the forum is fine with people posting photos

Consider this an homage to Merkle I suppose....(I can't do it as well as he could obviously)

From the Topps Vault ... 3-game reliever with the Angels in '74.

[hobbs11]

I had been searching for another photo of him other than the one Braves70 shared way back when....

T.V. just released another...

Number 42 in your 1972 & '73 Expos scorecards, #1 in your hearts Montreal.... (so why then the #48 written on his glove? hmmm.....)

[hobbs11]

Here's a career capper pic of Jack Hiatt with the Halos in '72....Jack appeared in 22 Games with 50 PAs that year hitting .289.

Here's hoping an applicable one with him with the Cubs in '70 shows up from the Topps Vault as well.....

Can anyone please help with some photos of my father Jesse Jefferson with the Angels not posted on here. I was told by a source that the tops images that may be available from topps is not available at this time for some odd reason.

Hey there - looking for some Sox images from '78 to upgrade what I have - Fred Kendall, Andy Hassler, Allen Ripley, Jim Wright, and the ever rare John LaRose (I have the LaRose images previously posted in this forum).

Thanks!

bmarlowe points out that the image I posted a few years ago as James Durham is incorrect. The SABR Minor League Committee has subsequently determined that the 1906 Lancaster pitcher is actually Bull Durham.

I have removed that image from the Facepack and replaced it with the confirmed image submitted by Dto7.

Thanks to bmarlowe for the correction and Dto7 for the updated photo!

Frank Thomas request: I have seen the image of Thomas with Milwaukee in 1965 (color, kneeling), But he was in spring training long enough with Atlanta Braves in 1966 to be in the team photo. Anyone have anything from picture day in "A" cap?

Here's Sid in what looks to be a 78 jersey.
