1957-09-18 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1957/09/18 — 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:

  • “Rockin’ and Rollin'” cartoon by Hubenthal on the front cover
  • Headline is “Committee Named to Pass on Records” with article “Requirements for Streaks to Be Set Up by New Group — Ruling May Be Made on Musial Iron-Man Mark; Spink Among Five Members Appointed to Body”
  • Also on the cover: “Wynn Proposes Ratings on Umps by Pilots, Players” and “A.L. Rep Yost to ask for Arbitration Panel — Basic Pay Hike Again to Be Sought”
  • Large Walt Moryn cartoon by Amadee with article “Bruins Moryn Turns Into Bull-Moose Batter — Power Blows Got Big Walt Off the Block”
