1938 Giants collectors...
 

Opening Day at TPG.

Who's the fellow in the back please? Note, they're wearing the World's Fair patch (Trylon & Perisphere). Thanks!

World's Fair was 1939-40. I just looked at the '39 roster at baseball-reference.com. Closest match I could make was Mel Ott but looking at the picture it certainly doesn't scream "Ott".

Kinda looks like Ott to me.

Why not Ott? BTW, I think the guy in the front, on the right, is Joe Jackson incognito.

Guy holding the trylon thingie actually looks kinda like Ernest Hemingway.

Thanks guys, I was leaning towards Ott as well, but he just looks more gaunt in this shot.

Reckon I should show the entire thing. 1938 NYWF promo.

Far left - Horace Stoneham?

I don't think it is Ott, but Bobby I think you are right about Horace Stoneham.

Harry Danning perhaps???

In the first photo, the distance between the bottom of the chin and lips is the same as the distance between the lips and the brows. In Danning's case, there is no symmetry. The distance between the eyebrows and lips is much larger than the distance between the lips and the bottom of the chin.

Richard, do you have a suggestion about who it is?

No suggestion, but I am almost positive it is not Ott.

Harry Gumbert
 

From my 1937 Giants guide it most resembles Harry Gumbert (he's got the right ears).
