Carl Horner Question

[CardMD]

I love to group my cards into different categories (pose / set / player / team) and I make different PPT pages with them (have another thread about them).

Recently I was making a Carl Horner portrait page with all my cards with his photos and I wanted to put a picture of him on that page but I can't find any photos of him online. Anyone have a photo of Carl Horner? Here is the start to my Horner tribute page (Johnson photo is from Horner right? I think it is the same pose as the Ramly? ) Thanks.

BTW, great piece on Horner:

There is a photo of Horner and his wife on page 232 of the Henry Yee book on baseball photography.

That Matty image is Benjamin Falk and not Horner.

Also, has the Cobb portrait been definitively attributed to Horner?

Hi Jeff- I've always understood the Cobb portrait to be a Horner...

A quick google search produced several mentions of it, here's one:

I have never seen the actual Horner photo used for Johnson's portrait. Does anyone here have a copy? It sold at Christie's years ago. I contacted them to try to get a scan but they sent me to another company that wanted a ton of money just to send me the listing.

These do not list the photographer, but here are some T206 with the photos used to make them:

Anything more reliable than Goodwin?

That could be the first ever Selfie, as I'm sure he clicked something with his left hand to take the shot.

....the controversy vs. Art Kruger that used to swirl around Paul's portrait on a T206. That is until our own Frank sorted it out. I actually have that missing corner piece.

These Sullivans are all based on a Horner portrait, by the way. The first three are mine, but I don't own the E107 Breisch Williams. Somebody on the board actually owns an original Horner cabinet of him.

Thanks so much for the tip, Bryan. I just shot them an email.

I will post a pic of Horner for you from the book.
