I do not believe these are Conlon images. Conlon did travel outside of New York to photograph baseball, including trips to Philadelphia in 1905 and 1910 for the World Series, Washington in 1912 for Opening Day and spring training in 1914. There seems little reason, however, for him to visit Chicago at the time these photographs were taken. Furthermore, in my opinion, the composition of these photographs is not consistent with Conlon's aesthetic.
The Rogers Archive is quite large, but it is certainly not the only, or even the largest, source of Conlon images; Christie's Baseball Magazine archive sale in 1996 was a major source and that added to an already large supply.

They were purchase from "soxphotos" on ebay. They could very well be forged, but the interesting thing is they weren't described as being Conlon photos and there wasn't a premium paid as if they were Conlon photos. So if someone forged them, they did a good job copying is sig, but no one even tried to benefit from it.
