Got this as a gift.Pretty interesting and cool.Need some help IDing some of these New York Yankees please.It's driving me crazy trying to figure out who is who.This is a snapshot from spring training from 1937(written 1937 on the back of photo). I think it could be 1936.There are 23 players/coaches in the photo. Always appreciate the help and knowledge of this board! Thank you! Also special thank you to Lordstan for his help on this :) ...Love the Yankee player in the center picking his nose,lol

11 looks more like Monte Pearson than Red Ruffing to me.

7 is Tommy Henrich?

13 is Art Fletcher.

14 might be Marius Russo.

Thanks for your input. I think you are right with Art Fletcher being #13, I can see it with that smile. You might be right with #7 and #14. I still see more Ruffing in #11, I don't know..it could be Peason.

21 looks like Arndt Jorgens to me.

12 might be Red Rolfe.


Almost certain 19 isn't Bill Dickey.

Joe Mccarthy can't be #20 because it's him doing the talking to the players.

If 12 is not Red Rolfe it might be Spud Chandler.
