Posted By: <b>Rich S</b><p> You guys did so well with IDing my mayor of New York 1st ptch photo I thought I might ramp it up a little with a harder one. From the look of the crowd I would guess taken in the 20's. Unless they were part of a strange septuagenarian beer league, that puts them as players at the turn of the century. The back is stamped "Photo by Pacific & Atlantic Photos,Inc" New York City.(file photo ?)<br /><img src="http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z310/rstattler/3hof.jpg">

Remember the discussion of a few months ago about the T206 images with the buckles on the side? Here's one post in the thread: <a href="http://www.network54.com/Forum/153652/message/1176227875/" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://www.network54.com/Forum/153652/message/1176227875/</a><br /><br />Bill
