Hartford Baseball Help
 
While going through some stuff I found this picture of a Hartford baseball tea.
I have done some preliminary research but have found nothing.
I don't think Comiskey is in it, but would love some help getting any info on who is and the time frame of the pic.
Thanks in Advance,
Mark

I can't see the picture. but I know there was a team in the pre 1900s, and then a team Gehrig played on, and later the Hartford Chiefs, who were a Braves farm team later.

You SURE Comiskey isn't in it? I think the photographer and Comiskey were both in town at a bar at the same time:p

I uploaded the pic to my photobucket.
Hopefully the pic will show up this time.

Shot in the dark here:

It's the 1915 Hartford Senators and that's possibly Jim Delahanty sitting in the middle with his legs crossed.

Wow, this is super-cool - NEW INFORMATION

I'm almost certain that's Mike Simon at the top left. He only batted 142 times in 1915 for Pittsburgh, and a 'Simon?' is listed on the Hartford roster.

Pretty sure your right on with Simon...here he is with 1913 Pirates. Great call. And what a great looking Hartford photo

HaHa! He's even tilting his head and wearing his cap the same way, two years later.

:D

Head tilt
 
Another Fact: I never mentioned Comiskey's unique head tilt in my Dubuque Comiskey photograph, I was starting to worry no one would notice. Thanks for confirming this very unique facial contour! --- thats one reason he aquired the nickname--"The Old Roman"--thanks!

Sure does look like the same delahanty that is in the t205 Gold border set...

Agree on Simon and Jim Delahanty.

As for other major leaguers, FT is indeed Fred Trautman. Also George Textor is standing next to Simon and Gil Whitehouse is standing 3rd from the right. Nice find.

Thanks all. Great info.
Any idea what something like this is worth?
Pic is roughly 5 x 7
Thanks,
Mark

Are you serious or kidding? I really can't tell.

Either way, please keep discussions of your other photograph to its own thread.

Lance,
It's not worth it. Don't feed the trolls.
