Posted By: <b>dennis</b><p>i would guess he would be the 3rd from the right with only his head showing.

Posted By: <b>Chris Counts</b><p>If he's in the photo, I believe he's in the top row, sixth from the right. Enos, by the way, was only 5-9. It's hard to tell, though. Can you get a better scan?

Posted By: <b>Phil Garry</b><p>Unfortunately, this is the only image I have to go by. I was using Slaughter's 1941 Double Play card (w/Johnny Mize) to match up against and my guess was the guy all the way on the left with the towel around his neck.

Posted By: <b>Ryan Christoff</b><p>It's ironic that someone said Slaughter is bottom row, 3rd from the right, because that's Cuban great, Miguel Gonzalez. And this image is from a Cuban postcard from 1940. <br><br>Top row, sixth from the right is obviously Josh Gibson. Could be Joe Jackson, though. <br><br>-Ryan<br><br>

Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>Ryan,<br><br>I sent you an email a couple of days ago. Did you get it, or did it end up in spamville somewhere?

Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>Oddly enough, I saw Max Lanier right away, but there are a few who look like Enos in the image. I might have to agree with the fellow who guessed top row, sixth from right.

Posted By: <b>Ryan Christoff</b><p>Jim, <br><br>Thanks for reminding me. I did get your e-mail, but it was right in the middle of a lovely batch of kidney stones, so your e-mail and all others from Sunday to basically today have pretty much been forgotten. I'll e-mail you right now. <br><br>-Ryan<br><br>

If you email me the scan of the image I could better compare photos and faces to the image you've posted...

Without that, I'm thinking 6th from top right would be him if he's in there. He a a solid, dependable player, who wasn't as tall as we'd expect. He was a ballplayer, though. A good 'un.
