Default Favorite Photos

Waite Hoyt -

John McGraw of the Giants signed him to a Professional Contract at 15 years old (in 1915). The photograph was taken the day this event occurred.



I also really like this one of Seaver from 1966:

I've been working on the biography of Joe Horlen, big league pitcher from Texas. He is believed to be the only player to have won a baseball World Series in Pony League, NCAA and MLB.

1 - The blonde haired, freckled faced 11 year old with a looping curveball had just thrown a no hitter for Shepard Jewelers (Collins Garden Midgets), 1949. He later threw a no-no on the big league stage for the White Sox in 1967.

2 - Working out on a makeshift mound in his backyard, circa 1948

No longer mine but I loved having them/looking at them for a brief time. Bought an estate sale and sold at auction last year. Love the images. Edited to add: Paul Thompson photos, of course.

You're damn right it would, Tony!!

Kenny, LOVE that Conlon image - for some reason, I don't remember knowing he was the photographer.

Have you ever seen a Type 1 of this one?



Definitely my favorite of Wheat.
