Looking for pictures of obscure players

digicat · February 24, 2010 8:22AM

I'm trying to locate digital pictures of a few old Giants players who only appeared in a handfull of games and never had cards. Ultimatly, I'm going to make cards of thse guys for my collection.

Can anyone help point me in the right direction?

The guys are:

1958
John Fitzgerald
Nick Testa

1960
Neil Wilson

1970
Miguel Puente

I've located some very small pictures of each of these players in the photo-pack for a computer baseball simulator called "Out Of The Park", but the pictures are too low-res for me to make a decent card with.

did you try posting this on the Net 54 board?

I've never really spent much time there, but I'll check it out.

The Baseball Hall of Fame library has a photo finding service. It's been a while since I've looked at the rates but I remember it wasn't exactly cheap. (Maybe in the $20-$25/hour range?)

Other guys can probably be found same way too.

I'm not looking to spend any money on this project, just a little time, so signing up and joining SABR or paying for image hunters isn't what I want.
