Just found this today. I wrote to pitcher Si johnson and he sent me back some George Brace photos of himself that were most likely Burke photos. Thought Id share this.

Verse Two
Sean,
The same experience with Si introduced me to Brace Photo and over the years I ordered hundreds and hundreds of PCs that I used for ttm. They were of varying quality based upon whether it was a Burke or Brace negative being used. Some even were poor quality photos of photos. I just pulled my file and reviewed all of my receipts; the orders started in Feb. of 1996 and continued until May of 2000. Here is the front page of my old pricelist: http://i152.photobucket.com/albums/s.../brace2001.jpg |
A Few Fave Burke/Brace PCs

Brace PCs
I did pick up some really good, unique color poses from Brace over the years.

I just picked the photo below up...$29...good deal? And who's the other guy? Wearing a catcher's glove...Moe Berg? If yes, any idea when/where this would have been taken? Any other info any one can share would be greatly appreciated...as always. Matt

I don't think the catcher looks anything like Moe Berg. And he was gone from Cleveland in 1934 whereas Feller came up in '36. I believe the pencilled annotation is incorrect. My guess is that it is Luke Sewell but I reserve the right to be wrong. The seller originally listed the photo as Feller and Berg. I emailed him with my thoughts and to his credit he changed "Berg" to "?". Either way I'd have paid $29 in a heartbeat for that fine Burke photo (had I have remembered to bid). Ya done good.
