Default Conlon

As i mentioned on the other board, I love his action poses which serve
as the bases for T206 cards.
I saw 2 for sale in the last Legendary auction(lee tannehill and ed killian)
and was able to pick up the tannehill. Lot 206, Lot 154.
i'd love to know if we have any experts on the Conlon/T206 connection.
what other Conlon's are behind T206s, etc.?
most of us have focused on Horner who is mighty great with the portraits but
Conlon has captured me now!
best,
barry

Mark,

Thank you for the info on the Library of congress prints. I don't know why I never thought to check that out but I was able to download several great baseball shots that will look great matted with their autographs. I always have trouble deciding what to do with my HOF executives autographs, but on that site I found a great photo of Frick, Griffith, Landis and Harridge all in one photo. Great way to matt those autos in less space.
That really made my Christmas!!

I have always loved the best that Burke, Bain, Thompson and Conlon had to offer; never got into Louis Van Oeyen. Most likely because I have not handled many GREAT images of his. I have seen some great images..never for sale though. What are other's thoughts on these great photographers and in what order do you rank them? I forgot about this thread and was hoping to get other's thoughts. Does anyone have any Louis Van Oeyen photos they would like to share? I have added some of my exemplars of the other 4 below in the thread.

Ben

PS: Would anyone include the likes of Thorne or any other pre-war photographer in their top 5 to replace one of the said photographers above?
