Default 1916 baseball photo, need ID

Just curious if these are players from minor league teams, or a mix of pros/minors etc.


Thanks for looking!

Ted

The Los Angeles uniform certainly looks early PCL; here's an Obak for font comparison

Thanks Max, kind of what I was hoping! Still not sure why there are so many different uniforms

I agree but there are letters underneath Los Angeles. See the R? I've never seen that on a Los Angeles PCL uniform. Would love to see a close up on the guys jersey on far right and the guy third from left. I see an R below the Los Angeles on both of their jerseys.

I too think PCL.

Looks like LA and Vernon type style uniforms. Love to see a hi-res.

Neat item.

Cheers,

John

The uniform on the right looks to read "Los Angeles Ry", which makes me think Los Angeles Railway, probably a city industrial league photo.

The player in the middle looks a little like Germany Schaefer.

I think RY is railway as suggested above. Also, everyone's hats are different and the LA players socks are even different from each other. I think you have a company team or even a bunch of guys that were on different company teams, getting together and playing a game. Cool shot, nonetheless.

This is one cool shot, Thanx for sharing. My grandfather played on company teams for U S Steel in the '20's and 30's and this reminds me of a photo I saw when I was... errr, younger. They played who they could whenever they could.
