I have an article in the editors' hands that has quite a bit of Jack Johnson stuff in it, but I'll try to put together a bio.

Meanwhile, here's the 1917 Topeka Giants. The suited man in the back row has Johnson's features if you compare to the 1905 Union Giants pics of him.

I would love a clearer photo of the 1909 KC,KS Giants - it certainly has Johnson in it, but the man i.d.'d as him doesn't match up well with the 1905 pics.

Anyone have one?
