Periodically we experience problems with our scanner. Today is one of those days. Depending upon which view you choose, the first scan will show horizontal lines and/or cross hatching marks. Rest assured, these are not on the card itself. Usually scanning problems are confined to color pictures but today it's "advanced" to black and white! (You will note that the second scan (reverse side of the card) exhibits none of these problems.) For the Baseball Hobbyist . . . The Sporting News Charles Martin Conlon #91 - FRANK "PING" BODIE, 1918 New York Yankees outfielder 4x5-inch Limited Edition Card From the early days of the dawning of the 20th century, the photographic artistry of Charles Martin Conlon was featured in baseball guides, daily newspapers, monthly magazines and, of course, The Sporting News - then America's Base Ball paper of record. Conlon's work also appeared on baseball cards. After a 60-year absence from that medium, in 1981 The Sporting News created a 100-card set from original Conlon glass negatives. Issued in classic sepia, this is one of those cards. Card size is 4 by 5 inches (4X5). Cards of this size fit best in either 3-pocket sheets designed for cards up to 4" X 6" or standard 2-pocket pages constructed for 5" X 7" photos and cards.
