The St. Louis Cardinals Photo Thread

[Cajun Cardinal]

Jack Buck and Mike Shannon broadcasting the 1972 season.



July 9, 1966: Holy Cow! Harry Caray is seen in his underwear while announcing the Cards-Astros game in 100º temperature. Never a dull moment.



1958: Dizzy Dean in the press box during his radio broadcast.

I stumbled upon this very beautiful photo thread. Wonderful job, Jeff! I thought I'd toss in these few meager scraps from some of my photo threads.

Two very similar images..... both had been posted in the thread already, but they are nearly identical!

Yadi did not quite get the angle correct on his right leg in the World Series Photo. That's an automatic 1 point deduction from the Russian Judge.... Wainright is perfect in both. Well done Adam.

What a great bunch of pics these are! I'm new to the forum, got here by accident and am having a ball looking at some of these. I have some of my own

Who can forget these big boys? Such a part of Cardinals history

It's been awhile since I posted some pics and I think I'm going to have to go back through the thread to remember what I've posted and what I haven't. But anyway...here's a nice one.

[hubkittel]

The 1896 Browns (I know it says 1895 but it's really the 1896 team).

[hubkittel]

Stanley Robison, who along with his brother, Frank Dehaas Robison, and Edward Becker, gained control of the St. Louis National League Baseball Club in 1899. It's a tangled, complicated story that I won't even begin to get into. Stanley Robison owned the Cardinals until his death in 1911.

Curt Welch (He of the $15,000 slide).

[hubkittel]

A couple of nice pictures of Charlie Comiskey and Arlie Latham from 1890.

[hubkittel]

I really like this picture of the 1888 Browns-very nice artwork.

[hubkittel]

These covers of scorecards from 1954, 1955, and 1958 were posted over at Viva El Birdos (and I apologize to the original poster whose name I've forgotten).

Ole Diz with Satchel Paige and Cecil Travis

A great shot of Izzy

Some more Hornsby. In the second photo you get a nice look of his glove in his back pocket.
