Found this... not sure if it's with the NL team, but the guy who colored it used red and not brown so maybe it is.

Getty has the image listed as Burkett with the 1903 St Louis Browns

Jesse Burkett - Cardinals

As Krantzbucks stated, the colorized image of Burkett shows him in the 1903 uniform of the American League Browns. Two images of him with the Perfectos (Cardinals) in 1900 (left) and 1899 (right) are pasted below:

I was wondering if there ever was a Topps Vault photo of Ken Reitz exactly like this one but larger. I noticed that a lot of the 400px wide photos were then release at, at least 500px wide in the zips starting about GA+. I looked all through mine but I might of missed that folder.

Thanks,

Doubled its size with Gigapixel

I already tried that with mine and I didn't like that blue in the name and cap emblem. That's why I asked if there was one in the actual Topps Vault instead of using Gigapixel. I appreciate the try but I'd rather have the other photo file if available like the other player photos.

Thanks,

Hi all,

just going through my spreadsheet of missing players and ran some numbers.

According my numbers there are now 349 major leaguers (including National Association) without known images. This number is in flux, since a few players remain misidentified in the record book.

By era:
101 missing from 1871-1875
183 missing from 1876-1889
56 missing from 1890-1899
9 missing from 1900-1919

127 of the missing players only have one major league appearance.
4 missing players appeared in over 100 games

Top 10 Missing players by games played:
Jim Holdsworth 319
Jack Leary 129
Art Croft 133
Henry Luff 106
Bill Stearns 99
Bill Morgan 94
Frank Fleet 88
Charlie Householder 83
John Shetzline 73
Redleg Snyder 72


Four teams comprise have a high number of missing players:
Philadelphia Athletics (AA) 1890 17 missing players
Washington Nationals (UA) 1884 17 missing players
Baltimore Marylands (NA) 1873 12 Missing players
Brooklyn Atlantics (NA) 1872-1875 have 29 missing players

Here is my top ten most wanted list:

Ike "Sammy" Samuels - early Jewish player and lived until 1975

Jack Leary - 129 games and very colorful character

Jim Holdsworth - missing player with most prominent career

James Burke - won 19 games for Boston Unions in 1884

Fleury Sullivan - led AA in losses in 1884

Tom Oran - early Native American player

Shorty Gallagher - only player for Cleveland AL franchise without an image - extensive minor league career

Sam White - 1 gamer from 1919 makes him most recent player with no photo

Jack Smith - one of the Ty Cobb strike game players - and only missing Tiger player

Fred Osborne - reputedly first Alberta, Canada (my home province) to appear in majors

Looks like you've already found Fleury Sullivan back in August of 2020.

[Chickazoola]

Oh geez, how could I forget that!

Replace him on my most wanted list with Wesley C. Blogg, who was reputedly the last 19th century major league player to have a beard.
