I need some education on Carl Horner photography. I recently aquired the piece in the attached image. I was told it was a second generation photograph no later than 1913. I was told it was purchased from Hunt auctions about 10 years ago. Can anyone help me figure out if this piece is authentic from the photographs? Any help is greatly appreciated.

As soon as I saw your image, before I read your text, I said that looks like a second generation photograph. You do see them occasionally in connection with Horner American League composites. As far as the date of 1913, I've never heard that cited before and would want to know how someone came up with it.
To answer your question is it a genuine second generation photo, I would have to see it in person to make that determination. But if it came from a Hunt Auction and was identified as such, I would feel very confident it is correct. |

Doesn't Leon own a piece very similar to this?

Yes, Leon's is first generation. I'm sure he will chime in when he reads this.

We posted simultaneously above.
![]() Second generation photos are ones printed at a date later than the original one, using the same negative. You can also have a photo of a photo, but I don't think that is the case here. I do not know how anyone can definitively date it 1913. Hopefully David Rudd can come on an elaborate on this, as I may have my facts a little mixed up. |

Would something like this have any value or would collectors not bother because it is a second gen? I would assume second gens are more readily available but not sure to what extent.

Barry,
Thanks for the response. I am still researching to see if it was sold at Hunt. The seller told me it was no later than 1913. I am not too familiar with photography, what exactly does second generation mean? |
