Hi-
At the Wilmington MA show I acquired a scrapbook related to Marty Berghammer. According to Wikipedia, he played for the White Sox in 1911, the Reds from 1913-1914, and the Rebels in 1915 in the Federal League. He also had a fairly long minor league career as both a player and a manager.
The scrapbook is filled with newspaper cutouts related to Bergahmmer's career. There are also a total of 14 photos sprinkled throughout the scrapbook. Some have writing on them (most likely Bergahmmer's given some of the captions). Below are 9 of the photos scanned at 400 dpi (I can scan it at a higher resolution if needed). Can anyone help with identifications? Some are labelled but some are not. It appears to be Heinie Groh in the first two photos on the first page (based on written identification).
I had to remove the pages from the scrapbook because it is falling apart. I will be keeping all of the items together in a binder removing as much of the construction paper as possible. I will post more scans next week. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.
