Here a a couple...the dark one is from a pre-season game and the colorized one is from training camp...in the spirit of the thread I have included the card I made from the training camp negative. The original B&W negative is spectacular in it's own right...
Thank you! Those are amazing- great work! I had never seen those before and glad you have shared. Much appreciated!
Awesome stuff! I have spent the last two days trying to find photos that match up to the Hogan and Flair 82 wrestling all stars, and I just couldn't find them. Thanks for the help! I picked this wrestling program up last month. Joe Louis was the referee. I had to have it. Anyway, thanks for adding some wrestling to the thread, I'm trying to get all sports on here.
I collect Type 1, 2, and 3 photos of photographs used to make 1952 and 1953 Topps cards. I have some original photos used to make other cards and other years. If you have any photographs used to make 1952 and 1953 Topps cards to sell or trade please email me at jehall51@zoominternet.net. Thanks.
Elgin Baylor was one of the greatest scorers in NBA history. He scored 60+ points three times in his career, and had a 71 point game as well. He was a basketball genius.
Love how the Topps artist put the ball in Mick’s glove 😂 And if you look close at the crowd, you can see Topps had to start repeating the image due to sizing issues. The photo used for the profile pic was posted up thread. All in all a classic card!

Here is the the closest thing I could get for the Tyson Panini. The picture was taken during his interview at the 17 minute mark.
Close enough! It's pretty difficult to match up the panini photos. Good job!
