Default Anyone Heard These Stories?

Barry is correct.
Most of the 19c BB photographs I saw at the NYPL while doing some research back in october were already stamped.
The 1922 inventory book can be purchased in reprint edition for about $20 from Martino Publishing.

The NYPL photograph room inventory book has some pencil notes on items recovered. Too bad there were not many
I think some items other than photographs have been stolen too.
I was looking for some scorebooks from the St. George's Cricket Club that are listed on the inventory but now appear to be missing.

A digitized part of the Spalding's Photography Collection is available to view in beta version at NYPL computers or at least in room 308.
Hope someday they'll make it public on the internet after taking some image theft precautions.

Hope this helps,

Jimmy
