Nate,
I like your post. Very nice Fed collection! Here is my contribution to your thread: Claude Hendrix pitched a no-hitter against the Pittsburgh Rebels on May 15th, 1915. Although Claude Hendrix is not wearing his Chicago Whales uniform in this photo (which predates his stint in the Federal League), the image is one of my favorites. |
Here's a Newark ticket from 8/25/15

This is my only Federal League piece. It is a Type I 1914 John Baxter Barbour who was the president of the Pittsburgh club.
