The "clips" were phased out in the early 1920s. That type of printing, where the photo came to the edge of the paper, is known as "full bleed." Conlon, for example used full bleed until about 1915 or '16.
If you have a Conlon of Joe McGinnity with white borders, you can be certain Conlon printed it after Iron Joe was retired. It shouldn't matter, Charlie took the photograph and printed it himself, but there is a distinction. NEA, the photo service, was slow to adapt. You can find their prints with the white globs in the corners into the 1920s. The early photo paper, the thin stuff, hasn't existed for a century. It would be easier to fake a Vermeer than a vintage Conlon contact print. Also, look at the patina, which you can't recreate. Buy a black light and a pair of cheap calipers. lumberjack |
