Hi-
At the Wilmington MA show I acquired a scrapbook related to Marty Berghammer. According to Wikipedia, he played for the White Sox in 1911, the Reds from 1913-1914, and the Rebels in 1915 in the Federal League. He also had a fairly long minor league career as both a player and a manager. The scrapbook is filled with newspaper cutouts related to Bergahmmer's career. There are also a total of 14 photos sprinkled throughout the scrapbook. Some have writing on them (most likely Bergahmmer's given some of the captions). Below are 9 of the photos scanned at 400 dpi (I can scan it at a higher resolution if needed). Can anyone help with identifications? Some are labelled but some are not. It appears to be Heinie Groh in the first two photos on the first page (based on written identification). I had to remove the pages from the scrapbook because it is falling apart. I will be keeping all of the items together in a binder removing as much of the construction paper as possible. I will post more scans next week. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide.

The cut-out face and the guy on the 2nd page bending down with the glove is Berghammer.
Confirming the others is difficult with what you have posted. 400 dpi should be enough, but when you attach the image to your post, the file is automatically substantially compressed which greatly reduces clarity of detail. To get around this you have to either use an image hosting site (like photobucket), or if you want to email the scans to me I'll take a look at them. |

Or crop and post the photos one at a time instead of the whole album page at 400 dpi. The reason they get shrunk down is the attachment size limitation built into the site.

Seeing this in person, it was an amazing scrapbook.

Hi-
I am sorry it has taken me so long to respond. Here are the same scans (400 dpi) uncompressed as they are hosted on an image hosting site. I will post scans of the other photos this weekend. I really appreciate any help woth identifications, and thank you Mark for your help already! Thanks again, Alan Elefson aelefson@hotmail.com ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Alan,
They are all Berghammer except for the ones with the names written on them, The quality of those is not great, but I can see no reason to think that they (Heinie Groh, Bert Neihoff, Jack Rowan) aren't correctly identified. |

Thanks again Mark! I thought most would be Berghammer but I was not sure. I have a few more I will post tomorrow. I also appreciate the confirmation on what is written on the photos. I could not make out all of the names myself.
Thanks again, Alan |
