I am curious to find out any information I can regarding this photography studio in Brooklyn as it relates to photos/cabinets they took of ball players in the early 1900s. |

Scott- there is an address on the mount but it is impossible to read. As a Brooklynite, I could locate where the studio is. At least it's a starting point. |

Did a little googling and found that they had a studio at 276-78 Fulton Street in Brooklyn and they did a lot of portraits. |

I collect wire photos, new photos, and original photos of Pre war baseball. I have about 65 of them. Mostly Ruth, Gehrig, and Foxx. In my opinion the consumate book on baseball photography is a book by Marshall Fogel and Henry yee called "A portrait of Baseball photography". It pretty much covers the gamut in terms of the studios and photographers in "The Day". I find no mention of the one you seek. Nor have I heard of it. It may just have been a local photographer. back in those days every neighbor hood had a few. They were everywhere. Technology had made it affordable for the lower classes and everyone else to be able to be photographed. It will take someone from new york/Brooklyn who has access to historical information to find who the photographer was. |

Fulton Street is in my neighborhood, and Joseph Hall's studio was also located there, too. So it was an area with many studios, and ballplayers would head down there to have their pictures taken. It is located downtown, near both the Brooklyn and Manhattan bridges. |
