Gardner & Co. Photographers - Brooklyn

I collect wire photos, new photos, and original photos of Pre war baseball. I have about 65 of them. Mostly Ruth, Gehrig, and Foxx. In my opinion the consumate book on baseball photography is a book by Marshall Fogel and Henry yee called "A portrait of Baseball photography". It pretty much covers the gamut in terms of the studios and photographers in "The Day". I find no mention of the one you seek. Nor have I heard of it. It may just have been a local photographer. back in those days every neighbor hood had a few. They were everywhere. Technology had made it affordable for the lower classes and everyone else to be able to be photographed. It will take someone from new york/Brooklyn who has access to historical information to find who the photographer was.
