Jeff,
You shouldn't lose any detail enlarging from a slide transparency. Even though it's small, a transparency should be the same quality as a negative. If the picture itself is sharp, you be able to blown it up huge, like you would a film negative.
Great pic of Maris, BTW. I think he was under-appreciated.

Best,
Mark

I was only able to land a couple of cheap George Burke negatives of Mickey Cochrane and Early Wynn. If I had landed everything I bid on I'd probably be divorced by now.

Hey Lance - I'm just noticing now that I'm not seeing the usual Burke/Brace catalog markings on these negatives. What are your thoughts about that?

Of the Burke negatives that I've handled, many had the file coding, but there were a good number that did not. The presence of the coding is a good indicator that the photo was shot by Burke or Brace, but the absence of it does not preclude it from being their work. My guess, and this is just a guess, would be that the negatives without coding weren't the ones he pulled for producing prints of those players when they were requested. If the negative got filed in that player's folder (or envelope, or whatever he used) and was never pulled out to make a print, no need to identify which folder it should be returned to. Again though, that's just conjecture.

Here's my one win thus far:



This is gonna make for one hell of a painting. Or MANY paintings, even.

Color me excited. These Newman negatives are absolutely incredible.

That fantastic Phillies photo has your name written all over it. It was entrapment...you had to buy it!

looks like Rick Wise; would be fun to do some investigative work to determine the actual date of the game

great photo!

It could be Wise and that would make this photo from 1966 (the only year he wore number 28 before switching to 38).
