1957-04-03 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1957/04/03 — ITEM DESCRIPTION: Oversized, appx. 11-3/4″ X 16-1/2″ classic The Sporting News issue printed on newsprint. The image at the left is a cropped out portion of the cover (too large to fit the whole thing on my scanner!) and there are other images below from inside this issue. Classic Sporting News from when it was “The Baseball Paper of the World”!

There is just too much packed into each issue of The Sporting News to list it all, but I have paged through this entire issue and here are some of the highlights:

  • Photo of Milwaukee Braves manager Fred Haney on the cover
  • “Game Needs Reserve Clause — Musial” is the headline on the cover with beginning of article and small headshot of Stan Musial
