Collection of thirty-six vintage news photos, spanning the years 1984-92, all capturing members of the Detroit Pistons during the postseason, including Isiah Thomas' first playoff series. This collection originates from the archives of the Detroit Free Press and features many memorable images of Detroit's fabled Bad Boys of the hardwood. All the photographs bear the date of each game on the reverse, with most also featuring editorial markings, including written identifications of the player/players pictured. Seventeen photos are black-and-white and the remainder are color. Twenty-six measure 8x10 inches, with three slightly larger and seven smaller (ranging from 5x5 to 8.5x11.5 inches). Nearly all display editorial markings on the front; otherwise, they remain in Excellent condition overall. Among the players featured, many more than once, are Isiah Thomas, Dennis Rodman, Bill Laimbeer, Scottie Pippen, Patrick Ewing, and Charles Oakley.
