The late John Siko, an old-time collector from Wilkinsburg, PA (where Bill McKechnie was born), had an opportunity to buy Conlon's negatives in the early 1940s. Siko passed on Conlon's personal offer and The Sporting News ultimately wound up with the negatives.

John Rogers, of course, bought out the archive. He could tell a good story and is probably regaling his cellmates as we speak.

Anything printed by Rogers would be a terrific addition for someone who collected a particular team or player, but wouldn't have any monetary value.
