Wow, that Dixon is great! I hope some others surface. It can be pretty accurately dated to 1936, the only year he played with the Grays - though the jersey style matches the type I have in photos from 1937. Since the Negro Leagues East-West All-Star Game was held every year in Chicago, perhaps Burke took the opportunity to go to Comiskey Park and take pictures. (Dixon only played in the '33 game so this isn't from an East-West Game.)
