Here is source images of the photos I took:




and after seeing the poor effort of the baseball cards on the scoreboard of the players at the game, I decided to create some vintage '50s style baseball cards.

Looks great dude. I'm still surprised at the font lettering they use for "Alex Box Stadium" though.

These are awesome. What about making the border and text an off-white, cream color to fully complete the "vintage" look?

Agree. Really cool, but subtle coloration to the whites might make it look more "old-school".

Took a quick shot at it:

Yea I can add the same filter to the layer on top of the border and Name... thanks for the compliments!

Example with filter over white border and name... this is 1956 Topps layout I did without player photo added:

1956 Topps Mickey Mantle


1956 Topps "LSU" Layout

That's perfect. Exactly what I was thinking. A nice yellowish aging to the border makes all the difference.
