1957-09-04 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1957/09/04 — 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:

  • “Just Like Home” cartoon by Mullin on the cover about the Giants shift to San Francisco
  • Headline is “Giant Shift Boosts NL Travel by 90 Pct. — Phillies Face 40-Gee Hile in Tour Tab – Fare for Cardinals, Cubs, Reds, Braves Estimated at About $35,000 More”
  • Large Nellie Fox cartoon by Lou Darvas with article “They Call Fox Biggest Little Guy in Game”
