	A Portrait of Baseball Photography Book . The Vintage Guides Volume 2 published by MastroNet and introduced at the 2005 National Sports Collector's Convention in Chicago, the book is written by seasoned baseball photograph collectors Marshall Fogel, Khyber Oser and Henry Yee. Beginning with the basics, the book details the origins and classifications of news and wire photos and provides historical overviews of the major news photo services. A large section documents the careers of some of the great baseball photographers including Joseph Hall, Carl Horner, Charles Conlon, George Burke and others--many of whose photographs were used in the production of baseball card sets well known to vintage card collectors today. An appendix details the various photographic processes from the earliest daguerreotypes to the silver-gelatin paper prints that dominated photographic printing in the twentieth century. The volume is lavishly illustrated in black and white and printed on quality coated paper for enhanced image detail. Further, many of the illustrations are as compelling as the one found on the cover (shown above), which shows Babe Ruth behind the lens of an early camera and Lou Gehrig looking on. Not For Sale.
