Help with old baseball magazine photos from Paris
 
4 Attachment(s)
Purchased a French publication called La Vie au Grand Air dated December 16 1911 that has an article about base ball.

The one photograph is from a game in NY 9/18 1908 pictures Honus Wagner and catcher Buffalo Bill Meyer NY Giants an HOF Umpire Hank O'Day. The description says Wagner is playing for the Cubs but he is clearly with the Pirates.

The Christy Mathewson picture is quite nice.

The third photo says baseball in Chicago - that doesn't appear to be Wrigley Field or Comiskey - what stadium is that ?

I believe it is the Polo Grounds.

Wagner image appeared in the Police Gazette and was also used for one of their supplements:

That is also the Polo Grounds, by the way.
