Sometimes you just get lucky!
The_New_York_Times_Sun__Mar_12__1916_-web-net-64.jpg March 12, 1916 New York Times article with the photo which states it was taken in Macon the past week, Baker's first week with the Yanks, and has the exact tagline "Baker getting a high throw" that is printed on the back of, and taken from, my photo. It just doesn't get any better than that! Bain must have printed my photos the first week of March 1916. Last edited by T206Jim; 11-24-2017 at 09:16 PM.

Bain was great because he only worked in one size (actual size) and all of his images are contact proofs. He developed a machine that could automate the process so whatever the size of the negative (4x6 or 5x7) that would be the size of the print. As such there was no loss of detail. He was not nearly as prolific as some of the others that existed at the time, but his images are clean and deep. It also does not hurt that they are baseball card sized!

The LOC had one more Bain shot from 1916, this one of Nick Cullop. It is the same photo shown in the March 12, 1916 NYT clipping above and was taken in Macon as part of the series. It has "22" in white, so obviously Bain shot a series of photos of many of the Yankees on that day.
