If I had a time machine I would spend most of my time at the ballpark. But unfortunately, the only time machine available to me is Photoshop, research, patience, and the dedication to create these images that appear to have been taken yesterday.
No laws of time and space were violated in the productions.
Photo restoration is a hobby that began over 35 years ago, long before the digital tools were available to make anything approaching the quality that can be produced today.
A single portrait in good condition may be completed in a day, while a large team photo in poor condition may take several weeks to a month to complete.
I present to you here with the finished images below the originals. If your favorite team is not represented, it's probably because they didn't exist 100 years ago!
