Photo of Negro League all-star Henry Milton
 

I found this photo of Henry Milton at an antigue store in Kansas City yesterday. Milton played one season for the Indianapolis ABCs and six seasons for the Kansas City Monarchs before dying of spinal meningitis at the age of 31. He was an all-star for five consecutive seasons while with the Monarchs. His nickname was "Streak."

Since I do not collect photos, I am hoping someone can tell me exactly what type of photo this is. Is it a type 1 photo? Is it a press photo? Something else?

Cool
 

That's cool Mark...Jerry

Type 1, the editorial marks around his arms would have been done so that the photograph could stand out better in publication so it is likely it came from a newspaper archive at some point. Cool photo.

very nice find

cool photo

Thanks for the info!
