1957-04-24 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1957/04/24 — 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:

  • “The Real Answer” by Mullin is on the front cover featuring Roy Campanella
  • “Fan Poll Okays Long ‘Action’ Games” is the headline with page 1 article “Double-Bills Win Vote of Big Majority: The Sporting News Survey Shows It’s the Thrills, Not the Hours, That Count Most”
  • “Hard-Riding Holler Guys Harder to Find” with articles “Old-Timers Were Rougher Than Present-Day Jockeys” and “Different Spirit in Game Now, Declares Vet Enos” Slaughter
  • “Dick Littlefield — Majors’ Man on the Move: Deal Puts Lefty on Ninth Club Since ’50” and includes a cartoon by Lou Darvas
  • “Reserve Clause Helps All, Hurts None, Says (Bill) Werber”
  • Tom Morgan
  • Johnny Podres
  • Juan Pizarro Makes Braves Staff
  • Baltimore Glories in Underdog Role
  • “Phillies Again Look Like Whiz Kids — at Least on Defensive: Many Rookies on Roster; Pitching, Fielding Sharp, Scoring Power Needed”
  • “Shelving of Parnell Sends Bosox Into NL Slab Shop”
  • Don Hoak
  • “Yawkey Given Great Heart Award With Ted as Emcee”
  • Billy Pierce
  • Opening Day Rosters
  • Nice Rawlings ad featuring Mickey Mantle
