Minor League team photo index

Pictorial Committee member John Spalding created a list of the minor league team photos which appeared in most of the baseball guides. The list provides the year and name of each guide, the name of the team, and the name of the league. It does not indicate the page number on which the photo was found within the guide. Bill Hickman entered the information into the Excel spreadsheet available here, providing sorting capability. The spreadsheet contains over 4,200 records covering most of the seasons from 1894 through 1942. The photos were shot in the season preceding the each year in which the guide was published.

The index is too large to post on the website, but an excerpt is posted below, and you can download the full file.
