Irving Phillips and his son were photographers for the Baltimore Afro-American and the Baltimore Sun.  (See sunspot.net millenium project for other examples of Irving Phillips's work).

These date from ca. 1948 and all except the photograph of Jackie Robinson were taken in Baltimore.  Efforts are underway to secure funding for the cataloguing and preservation of the collection.  These images were scanned as part of the grant proposal and are for educational use only.  They are not to be reproduced without the owner's permission in any form.
