CLEVELAND Indians BASEBALL Player BERT BLYLEVEN Vintage 1981 Press Photo

Size is approximately 5 x 7".

You are bidding on a vintage “Press Photo” meaning that this is an original silver print used by Newspapers or other Publications prior to the digital era. As it is a vintage press photo, it may contain wrinkles, creases, grease paint or other markings, paper loss or tears. Please study the scans carefully to assess condition.

We do not grade our photographs but they would adhere to one of the four following “Types” as categorized by PSA. Our notes below (BOLD italicized) should help you determine which "Type" you are bidding on.

Please let us know if you have any questions and we will be happy to assist!


  • ●  Type I – A 1st generation photograph, developed from the original negative, during the period (within approximately two years of when the picture was taken). Look for the earliest date stamps on the back of the print.

  • ●  Type II – A photograph, developed from the original negative, during the period (more than approximately two years after the picture was taken). Again, pay attention to date stamps and other notations.

  • ●  Type III – A 2nd generation photograph, developed from a duplicate negative or wire transmission, during the period (within approximately two years of when the picture was taken). These prints will often have the caption information on the front of the image, or appear softer than a print made directly from the negative.

  • ●  Type IV – A 2nd generation photograph (or 3rd or later generation), developed from a duplicate negative or wire transmission, during a later period (more than approximately two years after the picture was taken). Same as above and look for the date stamps, or the transmission date in the wire caption.
