Extensive collection of ninety-eight film negatives produced by renowned baseball photographer Charles Conlon, including four depicting Hall of Fame players. These negatives, which originate from the legendary Brown Brothers Photo Archive, feature Brooklyn Dodgers players or coaches who were with the club during the mid-to-late 1930s and early 1940s. Nearly all the negatives are housed in their original paper sleeves which feature Conlon's handwritten player and team identifications on the front. Similarly, most of the negatives bear Conlon's player and team identifications written along the top or bottom border. Conlon supplied Brown Brothers with photos over the course of his career, so many of the images in this collection were used for publication. Almost all the negatives in the collection were featured in various baseball guides, as most are marked as such by Conlon on the sleeve ("39 Guide" or "41 G," for example). All the negatives measure 4x5" and are in Very Good condition overall, with a small percentage in the Fair to Good range. In our listing, the number of negatives for each player, if more than one, is noted in parentheses (all are different poses).
