J.D. McCarthy was a Detroit based photographer and today the post will include a color and a B&W photograph taken by McCarthy. I’m unsure if you’ll be able to see in the pictures, but both have a mark that the photo was taken by McCarthy.

Mark,

I love JD McCarthy's work. Those are very nice photos.

JD McCarthy is also known for his postcards. I think Brooks has been posted, but there is a nice selection of other Orioles postcards. Jim Northrup, Milt Pappas and Gus Triandos all have postcards with sponsors ads on the back. Woodie Held is blank backed. The Jehosie Heard postcard is fairly hard to find and I'm still missing the Milt Pappas (squatting) postcard.
