Can anyone tell me the manufacturer of these 1960's color reprint photos and any history or estimated value? They measure 4.25" x 5.25" on paper stock and were made in Canada. I have about 20 of them each highlighted a player (the one above is of Tim Horton) and then describing the play that is photographed.

This is the same Tim Horton who has his namesake resturants all over Canada. He opened his first " Tim Hortons Donut Shop" in 1964. Died in a car accident in Feb. 1974, while driving a De Tomaso Pantera sports car. He had a very interesting life. I know this will not help solve your mystery, butI just thought I would add my 2 cents worth ! T.G.
Thanks ludedude. You have solved the mystery. I appreciate your post.
