Matty McIntyre's ca. 1905 Photo Album

[Runscott]

Brendan, I'll get some scanned today. I had high hopes for being productive over the weekend, but it didn't happen

Haha, well you just saved me the trouble of scanning that one!

The back of that 'piece of a page' has a photo of Matty and his friend.

FYI, the team photo sold for a huge amount as being a late season 1905 photo but it turns out the team photo was from 1907 because it had Hugh Jennings in it. It was a Van Oeyen and a beauty and sold for like $5000 on ebay if I remember right, but it was not 1905 as it was described.

I had originally purchased about 20 of them when they first hit ebay...one of my best scores was a shot of Big Sam Thompson (Images of him are quite rare)..I sold it to his great nephew who lurks in this forum.

The only one I have left - Wahoo Sam



I had images of Davy Jones, Matty McIntyre (and some with his family), Ed Killian, Bill Donovan, Jimmy Archer and others I can't recall right now...I still have all the scans, but since I don't own the photos any more I'm hesitant to post them.

Hi Dan,

Posting copies of photos from scans that old would not create any problems. The rule of thumb is that 85 years after a photo could have first been published it falls into the public domain. Any copyright protection on these lapsed in the 20th Century. These would fall under the general category of personal photos and those are rarely copyrighted. I have many photos in my personal collection that are pre 1927 and would have no problem reproducing them even if I sold the original images.

Cheers,

Michael

I do not own any of the following images, so if I offend anyone that does, my apologies. I just wanted to spread alittle pre-holiday cheer.
