EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Carroll "Buck" Barton, a prominent baseball player from Washington, D.C., is seen in his element at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville during the 1910s. The image, captured by the renowned photography studio Harris & Ewing, showcases Barton in his baseball uniform, poised and focused as he pitches the ball. Born in 1891, Barton began his baseball career in the minor leagues before making his debut in the American League with the Washington Senators in 1912. However, this photograph captures him in an earlier moment in his baseball journey, as a college athlete. The University of Virginia, located in Charlottesville, Virginia, was an influential part of Barton's development as a player. The Harris & Ewing photographic studio, founded by George W. Harris and Martha Ewing Kuntze in 1902, was a prominent fixture in Washington, D.C., and produced thousands of glass negatives, many of which are now part of the Harris Ewing Collection at the Library of Congress. This image of Carroll "Buck" Barton is a testament to the studio's ability to capture the essence of its subjects, both on and off the field. Barton's baseball career continued after his time at the University of Virginia, and he went on to play for several other teams in the American League. Despite his success, this photograph remains a poignant reminder of his early days as a college athlete, showcasing his determination and focus as he prepared to take the mound. The image is a valuable addition to the rich history of baseball and the University of Virginia, and a testament to the enduring legacy of Harris & Ewing.
