Original silver gelatin studio photograph of Kid Elberfeld from noted photographer Carl Horner. While Horner created most of his works on mat finish paper and sold them as cabinet photographs, he also sold images on gelatin paper to newspapers and magazines a bit later for publication (around 1907-08). This is one of the latter types and was issued by Horner and was never glued to a cabinet backing. Completely original, this is an iconic image of popular player Norman "Kid" Elberfeld which was used to make his popular T206 baseball card among others. Condition is fantastic and the image is a silver gelatin "Vintage 1".
