One of the better hitters in the American League during the 1920's that gets no love was William Lamar. He started his career with the Yankees and then headed over to the Athletics where he helped build the team that would eventually win two consecutive World Series in 1929-30. He had a career .310 average and in the year this impressive photograph he batted .356! A fantastic image from superstar photographer Charles Conlon and stamped on the back, this is in great shape! Charles Conlon (1886-1945) was America's first sports photojournalist. In the primitive days of photography, he lugged his camera to the ballpark to capture the heroes of the game in their natural setting and paved the way for a new genre of photography. His work encompassed four decades and he became a true master of his craft. His images range from aging 19th century stars through the golden age of the game and most of the iconic baseball photographs of the early 20th century originate from the camera of Conlon. Due to the nature of his employment, images from Conlon are quite rare to find. We are proud to offer at this time over 400 images from the master himself, Charles Conlon many of which have never been offered to the public before!
