1957-11-06 The Sporting News Baseball Magazine Contents

1957/11/06 — 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:

  • “Go West, Young Man” cartoon by Hubenthal on the front cover
  • Headline is “Feller Lists Agenda for Players’ Confab” with article “Office to Find Winter Jobs Among Topics — Kid Project Also on Docket for Big Timers’ Meeting at Key West on Feb 8-10”
  • Also on the cover is “Shifts to Coast Toss Wrench in Training Skeds — Clubs Will Lose Lucrative Dates in L.A. and ‘Frisco; Camp Switches Probable”
  • “Dodgers Will Bypass L.A. Until Opener – No Exhibition Tilts Booked on Coast; Club Shooting for Milwaukee Gate Marks”
  • “Braves Ax Job on Coaches Shakes Teepee — Ryan, Riddle, Root Handed Pink Slips in Surprise Move”
