Thank-you one and all for the responses. I've just finished sending the information off to the Vancouver Public Library (along with an appeal to scan more football photos). Cheers, James

Hey all, I post with some regularity on Lionbackers, and live just outside Vancovuer. I'm hoping you lot can help ID some players in photos from the 1958 Grey Cup. The Vancovuer Public Library has a massive photo collection as part of their special collections/archives, and I was in there doing some research and got to chatting with the librarian. Every once in a while they'll digitize some of their photos and put them online. She was showing me this, and there was an album on Flickr titled, "Football in Vancouver". There are a handful of photos from the 1958 Grey Cup included in the folder: https://www.flickr.com/photos/99915476@ ... 085348547/ I started naming players as the librarian was scrolling through the photos, and she told me that if I were able to ID any of them, to send her an e-mail with the info. I've ID'd most of the players in most of the photos, but am stuck with some of the Bomber players, and was hoping you guys can help me out. My goal is simply to pass on the information to the VPL in the hopes that they'll scan some more football photos. Given how many Grey Cups they've played here, there could be quite a treasure trove. So, first photo (I'm going to post links to them so you can check them out in hi-def): https://www.flickr.com/photos/99915476@N04/15707505660/in/set-72157649085348547 Number 77 on the left is Ernie Pitts; can you id the rest of the players in this line? This is in the locker room after GC '58. https://www.flickr.com/photos/99915476@N04/15272542224/in/set-72157649085348547 This is the Bombers' D on the field in the '58 GC. Can anyone provide the name of number 97 & 94? (I have the rest). https://www.flickr.com/photos/99915476@N04/15275171473/in/set-72157649085348547 Other than Pitts, can you id any of these players? Is that Bud Grant in the top right of the photo wearing the 'W' hat? https://www.flickr.com/photos/99915476@N04/15275165013/in/set-72157649085348547 Last one: again, other than Pitts, can you pick out anyone in this photo? Thanks for your help, & Cheers, James
