Crosley Field / Redland Field

Does anyone else have any old photos of Crosley Field that are not on the website www.crosley-field.com? I am looking for some new photos or ones that few people have seen.

I'm pretty sure that picture has been colorized, if that's what the is hinting . And the foul line seems to have dirt surrounding it. (making it easier to see if the chalk kicked up and where it landed, the PG also did this)

Yeah its obviously colorized... I did it for my website, Stadium Graveyard. Its sort of an art print type of idea....
And on the foul line quote, there was dirt surrounding that RF foul line....

Here is another pic of old Crosley

Here is another pic from the same day, June 23, 1957 but this is the first game of the twinbill. It is the bottom of the third inning and Nellie King is facing the Reds' Ed Bailey. George Crowe is at second base and Frank Robinson is at first base. The Pirates in this pic are Gene Baker at third base; Dick Groat at shortstop, and Paul Smith in left field.

The pic was taken on June 23, 1957. The Reds' Hal Jeffcoat is facing Pirate pitcher Elroy Face in the bottom of the eighth inning. Gene Baker is at third base, Dick Groat is the shortstop, and Hank Foiles is the catcher. Gene Freese is the left fielder. Of course he eventually played for the Reds. The Reds won the game 5-3.

This is a photo that I am trying to figure out from Crosley!

I believe this is either from 1955 or 1956 but I am uncertain. Any of the Crosley experts that want to jump in on this, please do so!!!

Damn thats awesome. Most Crosley pics around are usually from when the neighborhood got leveled. Classic Crosley had a cool backdrop with the wall of buildings all around.

I love the old photos that were taken of Crosley prior to 1961. The stadium was surrounded by all of those building...the Superior Towel and Linen Service building down the left field line. The Crowe Engineering Company building in center field. That was the best!!!
