Are there any Negro League photo resources I'm overlooking?

wireman · 02-05-2006, 04:03 PM

My team in the Unified Baseball League includes several Negro Leaguers I've never been able to locate photos for. Does anybody know where I might round some up?

My mugless players, BTW, are:

James "Slim" Reese
Theolic "Fireball" Smith
Graham Williams
Jabo Andrews
Harry Williams
Lamb "Bud" Barbee
Emmett Wilson

I've just about given up hope, but I thought somebody here might be able to help me.

Thanks.

I'm sure you've tapped all the online resources. As someone who is working on a documentary about the Negro Leagues and has access to photos from the Hall of Fame and Negro League Museum, I can tell you - there isn't much that isn't out there on the web already.

You can find some pix in books, but those are mainly the "big name" players.

That's pretty much what I expected to hear. Too bad.

Thanks.

I have quite a few Negro stars in my Alltime Allstar Association. I found them in photopacks...but not sure which packs. I got photos on JoeRock's old site...now on jazzrack's site.

I have none of the players you listed in this thread.

Here is Dave Barnhill.

I have all of the major stars like Satchell Paige, Cool Papa Brown, Oscar Charleston, etc.

Let me know if you need them and I see if I can get them to you.

the original and subsequent UBL files have many pictures that I compiled when putting the league together.
