These are the only two I have in my collection. The first is a 1940s Henry Kimbro. I love the description of him pasted below.
"He was a little unruly. He didn't always get along with umpires. Some would even have described him as Negro baseball's "bad boy". Kimbro, described by Ted Radcliffe as "the wildest man I ever saw in baseball and, absolutely, the hardest to manage, himself managed the Baltimore Elite Giants briefly during the 1950s before retiring in his hometown of Nashville". The second is from 1954 and is one of my favorite photos. It features Oscar Charleston, King Tut, and Connie Morgan who replaced Hank Aaron when he signed with the Braves. |

That's a really cool photo of the Boulder team Barry. Have you ever had any luck with identifying anybody on that team?
Here's an old turn of the century Cuban X-Giant cabinet card I've had for a while. Still haven't had any luck identifying him though. Rob M. Cuban X-Giant 300dpi .jpg |
