hoffman photos
These photos were taken in Atlanta in 1909 by, I believe, Hoffman's brother.
At one time, Al Price, a veteran Atlanta collector owned the paper negatives. Price was a very nice guy and sent the negatives to a number of collectors so they could make copies. He only charged a few dollars and trusted people with his negatives.
I have 19 Cubs images, 15 Highlanders and shot of Russell Ford in an Atlanta uniform.
They turn up from time-to-time in various forms on eBay. In his pictorial history of the Cubs, Mark Stang printed Hoffman images of Jack Pfiester in a batting pose with his foot in a pail and of Pat Moran.
This is the first time I have seen them with Hoffman name printed on the reverse.
