Gambo and T_Wil1 Photopack

Since we basically found every known image of him on here, I found yet another, from the SABR archives

It turns out that I was incorrect when I stated, almost 9 years ago now, that I have LA images for every 1965 Angel. In fact, I don't have Hernandez in an LA cap, and the attached low-res, side-view McGlothlin is the only one I have of him.

From 1912 and 1913. Notice he has a right-handed mitt in both. He had also played shortstop and third base during his time there too.

My kids were born at St. Agnes Hospital in Baltimore, right across the road from the former site of the St. Mary's school - always made me think about the history that was made there each time I drove by.

From Spring Training '64, as a matter of fact

[Merkle923]

From that mega-Brace collection. Never before seen the portrait of him with the '67 Phillies, to whom he was traded for Bob Uecker. Oliver was the Phils' starting catcher from early June onwards.

They dealt him to the Red Sox that winter, and after just 35 at bats (the fact that George took the photo as it started to rain at Comiskey is entirely symbolically appropriate) he then went on to the Cubs in June '68. He saw nearly no action with the infamous '69 Chicago team and was released in September, ending his career.

There is color of him in these last three stops, but not a lot.

I located a woodcut in the September 27, 1886 San Francisco Examiner of James McMullen, who was briefly a phenom for the 1887 New York AA club.

Here's a much clearer image of Wingo, an alias used by Ed Larivierre upon his signing with Philadelphia. He was a Canadian catcher, and well known in Montreal, where his photo was printed in the 8/12/1920 edition of The Montreal Star.

For some reason neither Glen Clark Braves '70 or Jim Clark 1971 Indians have a photo on their Baseball Reference page. Here is Glen Clark who came up immediately in a Google search. I looked for an email or any other way to communicate with BR but thus far I have found no such link.

Edmonson, who played only 2 games for Cleveland in 1913, was pictured in the 9/11/1913 edition of The Cleveland Press.

2 random newspaper sketches I found in the August 6, 1893 edition of the Wheeling Sunday Register

It appears to me that the public entry into making corrections on B-R is via the following webpage:

https://www.sports-reference.com/contact.html

I have a friend who has inside connections with B-R, and even with those connections it can take quite a while before an adjustment to the data base is made, simply because of the volume of transactions the B-R staff is confronted with.

Beautiful! Thank you!

Can anyone share the Lee Walls Phillies photo of him kneeling by Brace

Thanks for posting this new find. Please confirm the identification of George Bradley the caption appears to suggest George Treadway. B-R does list Treadway on the 1889 St. Paul roster.

Murphy is Larry Murphy (murphy001lar), not Con Murphy. Larry played for St. Paul in 1888, 1889, and 1890. He is pictured in the Old Judge card set.

Tom Turner (turner006tho), also in the Old Judge set, played for Peoria and Chicago (WA) in 1888, and then moved with the club to Minneapolis in 1889. His actual name was John Thomas Meyers.

The third player is George Treadway, who played for St. Paul in 1889. The fourth is Elmer Cleveland, who was with Omaha in 1889 and 1890.

Thanks for the update, Baseball Reference didn't list 3/4 of these guys on the team so I was just guessing based on the last names that they did have

[PinsonHOF]

Thank you Cusick for providing a link to BR. I will contact them.
