Chick Gandil. I think this is a Washington uniform but Conlon has "White Sox" on the back. Interesting:

Anyone has any large 8x10 1910's Charles
Conlon Photos for sale??? Please email me.

LOVE that Gandil, Andrew! It's definitely from his stint with Washington, and is from either 1912 or 1913.

Graig, it's a stunningly clear shot isn't it? There's also another Gandil where this came from. Will post later on today.

Love that Gandil. I picked this up for next to nothing. Early shot

I think this is a photo I need. :)

Here are my Mitchell and Suggs from the Cincinnati Reds 1910's Conlon Photos Type 1.

Kid Gleason, manager of the Chicago White Sox. Lovin' that uni :cool: :

Came across these two today. Joe McGinnity and Ty Cobb. Sorry for the crappy pics. Just trying to avoid glare from the lights above. McGinnity is maybe 4x6 and the Cobb is closer to 8x10. Too bad it's a little rough around the edges but still a great piece.

Keep showing your Charles M. Conlon Type 1’s Photos!

Two Early Conlon Photos
 

Two Charles M. Conlon photos from early in his career (backs dated 1906 and 1907) of Cleveland’s Harry Bemis and Joe Birmingham. These Type 1 photos are 4” x 6”. I just posted these for sale in the B/S/T section if you’re interested.

I think the prints are mis-dated by a few years. The Cleveland Naps didn't wear dark caps with light-colored shirts and pants until 1910.

I don’t have many photos but do love the images. Truly art in my opinion. Great images guys.

Here’s one of my only ones.

Show more of your Conlon photos? Also show if you have any from the 1910’s for sale?

Conlon Ernie Koob & Hod Eller
 

Great thread & certainly one of my favorites.
Both of these Type I Conlon's joined my no-hit pitcher photo collection in 2017:
St. Louis Browns hurler LHP Ernie Koob circa 1917 and Reds RHP pitcher Hod Eller circa 1919-1920.

Nice Scott!

Thanks Ben!

Is that Eller (Reds) an 8x10 Photo and from 1919?

Yes, it is approx. 8 x 10 and I believe it is from 1919 or 1920 as I stated in my 1st post.

Here is the back of the photo.

The Heater From Van Meter

Here are 2 more that I just picked up. Leslie Nunamaker and Art Wilson.

Conlon Hod Eller
 

Do you guys think this Eller is from the same day as the one shown in a few posts above? Not sure.

My answer would be yes :)

Thanks Scott. It looks similar, but I thought I may have missed something that the Net54 sleuths wouldn’t miss.

I dunno. Socks don't look like they match. Also, long sleeve shirt he's wearing may be different colors.

Here are some new Conlon’s I just picked up for my collection. All of them are from the 1910’s. Huggins, Doyle, Caldwell and Thomas. Tremendous!!!!

The Ira Thomas (?) on the bottom is incredible!

This Matty just came yesterday.

Yep, that’s Ira Thomas.

Andy, here's my companion piece to yours (Adams Gum ad in the background). To me the Strunk pic looks more like a Conlon than a Thompson, but it's got the Thompson stamp on the back.

Scott,

That photo of yours is amazing as well. Inside Disney World in Orlando, there is a Hot Dog place called Casey’s which has a bunch of 1910’s memorabilia including photos. That photo of yours, currently sits on their wall. Not sure if it’s an original type 1 like yours or just a reproduction. Here it is.

That's wild, as it's not a common Strunk shot, best I can tell.

Well, the material from Hunt was consigned by Photo File and has been in our archives for the past 40 years. It could be that we reproduced the Strunk shot for Casey's. Seeing what else they've got on the walls and if it matches other images from our archive might back that up.

There is a bunch more vintage photos on the walls.

Happen to have any shots of what else is there?

Here is Mike McNally, Yankees

I also have a Nelson "Chicken" Hawks from the BB Magazine archive. It is marked up for use. Is it worth cleaning? How is it accomplished and any risk?

cleaning of photo
 

Try a little warm water on a cotton ball. Start in a small area, say the ground under Hawks' feet. Put a piece of paper towel over the print and place it in a heavy book when it dries, then repeat. If you tackle a big area at once, the photo will curl up. Even after you get it clean, there may still be a "ghost" around the image. Some guys like them all slopped up by the newspaper art department. I don't know if it is worth more restored, but it certainly will be a cleaner looking image. Don't do too much scrubbing as you could begin to remove the actual image.

Just picked up this shot of Dave Bancroft:

Here is my latest Conlon photo. A beautiful Amos Stunk!

This is what was sold to me as a Conlon photo. I was interested primarily in the photo since Jim Thorpe is 2nd from the end on the left holding the Belgium flag. John McGraw is out in front. A lot of you probably can identify some of the others. If it is a Conlon then that’s a bonus for sure! Lot 454 of the just ended Huggins and Scott auction has another view from a news service. There is another one of the same event by Underwood & Underwood on eBay right now. It is from the 1917 World Series. I’m not familiar at all with what would identify the picture as taken by Conlon but many of you probably could if there are identifiers that I’m not aware of. Maybe the writing on back is Conlon’s? I’m just taking the work from a fellow collector. If it’s not a Conlon then please accept my apologies for posting the photo. At worst you all will get to see a nice baseball photo? I welcome any insight on whether it could be a Conlon photo or not!

Conlon
 

This is a Conlon photo. The first paragraph is in Conlon’s handwriting. Also, the seller you bought this one from is somewhat knowledgeable in the field. ;)

In comparing handwriting it looked like Conlon but I’m not familiar at all. I’ve bought from the seller before and the items were what he said so I definitely took him at his word. Thank you for confirming that it is a Conlom!

That's a great photo. If you get our catalog we dedicated a section to the pioneer lensmen.

Love photos like yours that tell a story. Very cool.
