This book, which was done by David R. Phillips, does have a number of great images in it, and is probably the largest collection of his stuff out there:

Phillips was in possession of Burke's negatives a few years back, which included a melange of subjects in addition to baseball. Last I heard, he was in the middle of selling Burke's old negatives off as an entire collection, but I have NO idea whether that actually happened.

My memory on this is fuzzy, but I do remember high-quality Frances Burke baseball prints being sold years back - maybe 10 or so - there were a lot of them and they were high-quality. I believe it was a limited number of prints of each image, but I'm not sure. In any case it didn't last long and I can't even find anything about it by googling.
