I have searched everywhere I can think of online but had no luck with these players. Likely it will require someone with a scanner and a copy of a book like Marc Okkonen's Baseball Memories: 1900-1909.

I recently found a copy of his book on the 1930's and will be using it to fill in most of the missing players from that decade as soon as I replace my scanner.

Below is Barney Reilly, a veteran of 12 major league games all with the White Sox, from the 1909 set.

I have been intensely curious as to the sites you peruse to gather these outstanding images. The number of players you are able to uncover images for and the quality of these photos is superb. Your efforts are greatly appreciated and a treasure for historical simmers.

^^^^^ What he said

No really, great job with these!

Tiger Fan · 09-09-2003, 08:19 PM

Thanks. It has almost become an obsession now to get a photo of every player to ever play major league baseball.

Many of the images come from ebay and many come from my own personal collection of Conlon Cards and old baseball books.

Others come from google search and sites like the following:

www.corbis.com - decent collection mainly of better known players

http://memory.loc.gov/ - use the search engine to find a ton of great images shot by the Chicago Daily News from 1900-1930

http://oaklandoaks.tripod.com/homepage.html Nice collection of images of PCL players, many of whom briefly played in the majors. Links to San Francisco Seals and Sacramento Solons sites as well.

http://www.attheplate.com/wcbl/1950_1.htm - Great collection of images from the Western Canada League of the 1950's. It included a number of future major leagues plus a bunch of future NHL stars.

www.1918redsox.com A site with images of all players on the 1918 Red Sox.

Others came from many varied sites and from a few SABR members I have emailed for help.

I now have over 20,000 different baseball images saved on cdrom since I started this project nearly 2 years ago. I am a huge fan of baseball history (likewise hockey and football) and I have learned so much about the game and many obscure players during this search.
