Seeking Negro League Images
Hi all,
I hoped to maybe get some help on a project I have been working on covering Black baseball as it developed in Alabama. Several net54 members have already been very cool with assisting and I am so thankful!
I am searching for images of players who have connections to Alabama for a book to be published later this year. I have had trouble locating some of these guys and hoped the forum might either have or direct me to some high quality scans. It's the unsung guys I am hoping to give some props and would love to put faces with their names. Some have images out there but are really low dpi and my publisher is a demon about high res, I hoped someone here might have better quality.
Its a project I have been working on for a several years and I am excited to see it come to fruition. Thank you so much for any help or info you might have.
