The *Other* Ultimate Historical Facepack - Page 2

Jeff Olsen · 08-30-2004, 12:58 PM

Well, I'm sort of finished. Currently going back through to see if I can find better pics for some, I'll be posting a list for those that I need help on.

I just want to say thanks to everyone who has helped out with the facepack projects especially Tiger Fan (your HOB got me hooked on these boards, and your photo collection is amazing), Jeff (way to pick up the ball and run with this), darkhorse (your ability to find some of the hard-to-find players is staggering), and Pyroman (great 19th century collection on the APLB website).

Jeremy Weimer · 08-30-2004, 01:36 PM

Good job to everyone.

One of my dream jobs would be to run MLB.com. Having a photo(s) and extensive biography for every player in MLB history would be one of the top priorities for the website. MLB has vast historical resources---a visit to Cooperstown will confirm that---and making them more accessible to the public is a must.

As a side note, I'm about 40% complete on work towards a facepack for the 1990 season of MLB. It was inspired by my membership in the Lords of Baseball. It will eventually include every player that has played in MLB from 1990 to the present.

I'm doing pretty good at finding better pics. Out of 24 so far, I've improved on 19. Those other five are Al Demaree, Allan Russell, Barry Lyons, Bert Haas, and Bert Niehoff. I'd prefer at least 160×200 so I can use them for Mogul as well.

darkhorse · 09-03-2004, 04:49 AM

Barry Lyons.

darkhorse · 09-03-2004, 04:54 AM

Bert Haas.

Jeff Olsen · 09-03-2004, 11:13 AM

Thanks! I already have an OOTP-suitable pic for Lyons (I was really looking for a Mogul version) but Haas is good.

Jeff Olsen · 09-03-2004, 10:57 PM

I think I'll use that Barry Lyons anyway. It does look better than what I had.

Stenzel is in the middle row, second from the end, to the right.

Here is his pic, 90 X 135, OOTP style.

Thanks Darkhorse!
I just happened to be perusing this thread & saw your posts. This was the only picture that I couldn't find that I needed to complete my Hall of Fame as of 1969.
Thanks again,
Bill

Geeze and here I had a hard time finding a photo of Stubby Clapp (2b, St Louis Cards, 2004)

Hats off to you this kicks ass

Jeff Olsen · 09-08-2004, 11:47 PM

Here's another I'd like to improve on. All I can find for Bob Patterson are action shots.

Here's one if you still need it.

Jeff

How about Nick Cullop, early Yankee pitcher...and Wheezer Dell

Splitter24 · 09-09-2004, 02:47 PM

Nick Cullop

Splitter24 · 09-09-2004, 02:55 PM

Sorry. This is the best I can do for Wheezer Dell right now. I might have something better at home.

Which one? 1916 & '17 or 1926?

Carlton · 09-09-2004, 06:13 PM

the 1916-17 one
I didn't know there were two

When can I get your file?

I tried to get a pic for everyone from the 1916 season but I'm afraid I don't have Cullop or Dell.

They'll all be available from SimCentral when I'm finished.

I have two images of Wheezer Dell. Here is a 1912 shot while he was with the Cardinals. I also have an image of him in a Brooklyn uniform but this one is clearer.
