1907 Chicago White Sox Spring Training Trip Original Photographs

[patricka]

Group of photos from the White Sox spring training trip to Mexico in March 1907. I had some other photos from this trip still on the scrapbook pages that I sold earlier this spring. These are some more photos I acquired from the same Chicago sportswriter collection.

Photos identified on the back in modern writing from when the person who owned these before me removed them from the scrapbook page and wrote what was on the caption which is generally the player’s name, the year 1907 and Mexico City . Also below is a picture of some newspaper articles about the trip that were in the scrapbook. Photos exhibit scrapbook removal.

The newspaper clipping that is in the middle of the three displayed in your post refers to "Fielder A. Jones, Mrs. Jones and Cecil Jones". According to the SABR biography of Fielder Jones, Cecil was his son, born in 1901. Clearly, the photo is not an image of Cecil, who would have been five or six years old. (It does appear that it could be Fielder.)
