A part time player, Billings hit .429 in 1922! A beautiful portrait photo by Charles Conlon and stamped on the back, this is essentially in perfect condition! Charles Conlon (1886-1945) was America's first sports photojournalist. In the primitive days of photography, he lugged his camera to the ballpark to capture the heroes of the game in their natural setting and paved the way for a new genre of photography. His work encompassed four decades and he became a true master of his craft. His images range from aging 19th century stars through the golden age of the game and most of the iconic baseball photographs of the early 20th century originate from the camera of Conlon. Due to the nature of his employment, images from Conlon are quite rare to find. We are proud to offer for the first time, over 500 fresh to the market images from the master himself, Charles Conlon!
