Shot in 1959-1960 at minor league park, Wrigley Field, Los Angeles. (where Cubs and Pirates minor league teams played before the Dodgers came to L.A.) It was hosted by Mark Scott.
Here's the list of Home Run Derby baseball cards. I don't know if this covers every player who participated because it would be hard to host a tournament with 19 players.
First the host, Mark Scott got a card of his own - (card #17) . then the list of competitors included: (cards 1 through 16): Hank Aaron, Bob Allison, Ernie Banks, Ken Boyer, Bob Cerv, Rocky Colavito, Gil Hodges, Jackie Jensen, Al Kaline, Harmon Killebrew, Jim Lemon, Mickey Mantle, Eddie Mathews, Willie Mays, Wally Post, Frank Robinson, (and cards 18-20): Duke Snider,Dick Stuart, and Gus Triandos.
Put any four of these guys on any one team and you'd have an unstoppable "Murderer's Row", if you got even halfway decent pitching.
