I just posted to my blog (link below) an item about an apparently scarce 1953 Cards' photo album. I can't post the cover here, because it reproduces terribly, but here are a couple of the interior spreads. If you've got any interest or expertise in this area, please check it out and see if you can help with the book's origins.
Thanks much!

Is the cover an official publication, or is it a generic photo album? Do me, from the pages you posted, it looks like a homemade photo album with some photographs and the names written by a kid at the bottom. It does look interesting.

- The Jablonski photo I've seen with a different cropping on a Cardinals team issued post card.
- The photo of "Anderson" is actually Sal Yvars. That photo was used on his team issued post card.

4 questions.........
How many pictures?
What size?
Are they a REAL PHOTOGRAPH (A real photo will not have print dots, like a printed photo)?
Are they blank backed?
but . . .
there are 29 pictures, glossy photographs, blank-back, 2-3/16" x 3". I don't believe they are a souvenir-stand item because those usually have a player name or facsimile auto; these don't.
