Help With IDing These Photos Out of My League...
 
4 Attachment(s)
These are probably the newest (age) baseball photos I own... These are 8" x 10". Not sure what I have or who is pictured? Can anyone id these guys? Is that Mr. Wagner in the bottom right? Do you think these are period?

I have tried to find anything on I. B. Bohn "photographer" - but have come up empty handed...

Not in hand yet - so hopefully I get better scans.

Thank you for any help.

Definitely looks like Wagner in the bottom right of the first photo to me. Odd to see him pictured in the same composite photo with a Cubs White Sox player. Isn't that last one a golf game? Definitely get better photos/scans if you can.

I think your White Sox player in the middle of the first photo is Orval Grove. Not 100% positive, so somebody double-check me.

No idea who I. B. Bohn is, but looks like a staff, or possibly local, photographer's stamp to me. Pretty sure I haven't run across him before, for what that's worth. Are they all credited to him (or her)?

Hi Lance,

Thank you for your input it actually makes me feel better about the purchase.
Yes all three photos are by Bohn. When I get home I'm going to see if I can find some comparison photos of Orval Grove, thank you for that lead!

I think the composite photo is strange as well - almost like he was practicing or something?
